How do I cancel or delete a booking?

11 steps Updated

Easily cancel a booking via the dashboard, check payments and remove the booking using the automatic block removal feature.

Cancel or delete? Cancel keeps the booking as cancelled and sends the guest a cancellation e-mail. Delete removes the booking completely, together with its scheduled e-mails and payment requests; the guest is not notified. You'll find both under the three dots at the top right of the booking.

Did the booking come from another platform, such as Airbnb or Booking.com? Then cancel it on that platform. The block disappears from your calendar automatically afterwards.
