You can setup multiple rules (promotion) for the same date range within one season
The system will allow you to setup a new season (Promotion) and rule with dates over lapping with an existing Season with same rule. There is no validation. When Airbnb receives the new season, it will automatically override overlapping dates with the newest season rule
Example:
Season 1 = 01-30 April
Season 2 = 15 April – 15 May
From 01-14 April, Season 1 rules will continue to apply
From 15 April – 15 May, Season 2 rules will override and apply
If dates searched meets multiple rules, all discounts will apply
Example:
Early Bird 5%
Min Stay 2 night 5%
Dates qualifies for both, 5% discount will apply twice
