- The reservation you're canceling doesn't overlap with another reservation in your account.
Also asked, how much is the Airbnb cancellation service fee?
If you're a guest who needs to cancel a booking (again, through June 1st), you won't be charged Airbnb's 14 percent guest service fee for doing so. Guests who aren't charged the service fee will get a travel coupon worth that amount for future use. Hosts are still able to determine their own cancellation policies.

Who gets Airbnb service fee?
The payout you'll receive is your nightly rate minus the host service fee. To view information about any of your payouts, visit your Transaction History. Guests pay a service fee to Airbnb in addition to the cost of your listing, which is why the total price guests see is higher than your payout.
