Some tours don't run on a fixed weekly schedule. You might offer a special holiday tour, a seasonal event trip, or a one-off departure on a specific date. Junglebee's date overrides feature on the Schedule step makes this easy to set up.
The Schedule. Scroll to the bottom to find the Date overrides section for adding specific one-time dates.
When to Use Date Overrides
Use date overrides when your tour needs to:
Run on a specific date that isn't part of your regular weekly schedule (e.g., a New Year's Eve tour)
Add extra trips on a particular day (e.g., a holiday with higher demand)
Offer a seasonal tour that runs on select dates rather than weekly
Block out specific dates when you know you won't be operating

Example Use Cases

One-time special event: A tour tied to a local festival — add just that festival date with custom capacity.
