Check your reservation status as a guest

As a guest, it’s always good to know the status of your reservation. Your status lets you know if your reservation has been confirmed, or if anything else is needed, like verifying your ID or leaving a review.

If you’re unsure about your status, you can always find out what other statuses mean.

Check your reservation status

Check reservation status on desktop

  1. Click Messages
  2. Find the reservation message from your host
  3. The reservation status is shown within the message thread

A confirmed status means you’re good to go! You’ll receive an email saying so, along with a text (SMS) and a push notification if you have those set up. Learn where to find your confirmation code.

If your reservation isn’t confirmed

If you sent the host of a place to stay a reservation request, they have 24 hours to respond. If they decline or don’t respond, no worries: You won’t be charged and are free to book a different stay. Either way, be sure your account is up to date with valid payment information and your verified ID. (Some hosts require it.) For Instant Book listings, your reservation is automatically confirmed.
