This guide walks you through how to add, edit, and manage Airbnb promotions (Seasons) step-by-step.

Promotion B: April 15–May 15 (20% discount)
On April 20, Promotion B’s discount will apply (as it was created/updated last).
If rules overlap (e.g., Early Bird + Last Minute), Airbnb will apply both if the booking meets all conditions.

Dates with active promotions will be color-coded. (if not showing, turn on Rule-sets from Layers menu)
Click on a date to see the exact rule(s) applied.

Use clear naming and color coding to keep track of active promotions.
