Scheduling Limits

Overview

Scheduling limits let you control how far in advance renters and students can book aircraft, and cap the duration of a single reservation. Admins, owners, and CFIs are exempt from these limits.

Setting Scheduling Limits

1. Go to Settings (admin or owner only).
2. Under Scheduling Limits, enter values for:
   • Max advance booking (days) — how many days ahead a member can book. Leave blank for no limit.
   • Max reservation duration (hours) — longest a single reservation can be. Leave blank for no limit.
3. Click Save Settings.

How Limits Are Enforced

Limits apply to members with the Renter or Student role when they create a new schedule entry.

If a renter tries to book outside the allowed window or over the duration cap, the server returns an error and the booking is not created.

Examples

• Max advance: 14 days — renters can book up to two weeks out. Anything further returns: "Bookings can only be made up to 14 days in advance."
• Max duration: 3.0 hours — a renter cannot create a 4-hour block. They'll see: "Bookings cannot exceed 3.0 hours per reservation."

Recurring Reservations

Each occurrence in a recurring series is validated individually. If your advance booking limit is 30 days and you create a 10-week recurring series, occurrences beyond day 30 will cause the series creation to fail. Break the series into shorter segments if needed.

Notes

• Limits only take effect after running migration supabase-migration-v35.sql.
• Setting either field to blank (empty) disables that limit entirely.
• Limits apply at booking creation time, not at check-in.
