To better manage your availability, you can use promotions to restrict bookings based on custom party sizes or by setting a maximum number of covers. This allows you to tailor your offers to suit your operational needs and ensure a smooth service.

⚠️ Important: If a booking exceeds your party size or cover limits, it may still go through under standard availability. To block this, request a standard availability blocker by emailing [email protected].
