# Stale calendar availability and double bookings

If your site's calendar display is out of date, your guests are still not double-booked. The checkout step checks live availability directly, so guests who select dates that are already booked are blocked at the final step, before any booking is confirmed.

Still stuck? [Contact the HomeRunner team](https://homerunner.io/contact/) with your site address and what you tried, and we take it from there.
