How to Avoid Double Bookings Across Multiple OTAs in Japan
It was 10pm on a Friday when I got the message. A guest who’d booked through Booking.com was standing outside our guesthouse, keybox code in hand. The problem: someone else was already inside, checked in through Airbnb three hours earlier. Same room. Different platform. Two very unhappy guests.
That was our first double booking. It was also our last — because the following week I completely overhauled how we manage calendar sync across platforms.
