Wouldn't it be a better idea to have some CTA for like future booking or booking voucher so the hosts can get money now for a future service? So you know if someone really likes a place and visits it every year can spare a few bucks if they can to freeze it


Honest question, how is this different from just booking in advance?


Presumably because with the current Pandemic, a lot of people don't know when they will travel next, so can't really pick a date to book.

The intent here seems to be to ensure that your favourite family-owned chalet can weather the pandemic without you necessariliy going there any time soon.


Booking in advance requires knowing the dates of travel beforehand, the proposal above does not.
