How to become a booker
If you will be booking trips for employees as part of your organisation or for individuals within another company or organisation, you’ll need to sign up as a booker. The below outlines how to do so in two different ways.Option 1: User Profile SetupVisit the Booking Permission section of your user profile. Scroll to the people you can book for section and select add a traveller. Enter someone’s email address to request permission to book and manage their business trips. They will receive an email to accept (they must have an Airbnb account to do so). You’ll then receive a confirmation that you can now book for them.Option 2: Administrator PermissionsAsk your dashboard administrator(s) to update your role to booker in the dashboard. Doing this will allow you to book for all users in the organisation who share the org’s domain, and that work domain email is linked to the user’s Airbnb account.
