Important considerations when changing guest numbers
- Property capacity limits: Changes depend on the property's maximum guest limits and current availability
- Price changes: The total price may change if you increase or decrease the number of guests. You will be notified of any price adjustments
- Approval required: All changes must be approved by the platform and the host before they take effect
- Timeline: Allow time for the property and platform to review and approve your request
- Contact support: If you experience any issues or your request is denied, contact the platform's support team for assistance
What happens after you submit your request?
When you submit a request to change the number of guests, the booking platform and property owner will review your request. You will receive a notification with:
- Confirmation of whether the change can be accommodated
- Any updated pricing information
- Next steps to finalize the modification
It's important to submit your request as soon as possible, as availability and property restrictions may affect whether the change can be approved.
What if I'm unable to change the number of guests?
If you cannot modify your reservation directly through the platform, this may be because:
- The property has strict modification policies
- The requested number of guests exceeds the property's capacity
- The modification window has passed
- The property is fully booked around your dates
In these cases, contact the property directly through the platform's messaging system or customer support team. They may be able to work with you to find a solution or discuss alternative options.
