I like to keep certain parts of my calendar clear, and Calendly lets me set availability blocks. But sometimes I want to offer a broader range of availability to a VIP. That is, normally my availability might be 10AM-4PM but I want to offer 9AM-5:50PM to important contacts. So…
I’d like a way to specify “VIP Availability” that is broader than general availability, and
I’d like a way to specify a link so that the person can pick a slot off the expanded “VIP availability” versus the “normal availability”.
Does that make sense?

Hi @DanThePro - Thanks for reaching out.
Right now, there isn’t a way to offer differing abilities through the same even, since we don’t have a way to identify who is booking while choosing the availability. In these cases, some users have just setup two different events (One with expanded hours and the other with regular hours) and sent out the links to their specific clients.
Something like this can also be setup through a Routing Form as well! (You can read more about this here: How to create a Routing Form)
I do think this is a good idea, I’ll get this passed along to our product team to review!

Oh - that worked! I did not see previously that I could have custom availability for an event link. I now have a link with the expanded availability. Perfect! Thank you!
