Here's an AirBnB tip if you're in a situation where you're unsure if you'll go/get to your destination(s):
1) Contact multiple hosts about availability via AirBnB within 24 hours of you knowing when you'll go/get to your destination. I say multiple hosts since not all of them may get back to you, never mind have availability, despite their calendar saying so.
2) Wait for the hosts to get back to you with offers.
3) Here's the key: since the offers are valid for 24 hours, you'll be able accept or refuse them by the time you know when you'll go/get to your destination. Obviously, try to inform the host as soon as possible, since they're not hotel receptionists.
