Hi! I’m using Calendly to help customers book learning sessions, and I have a large team of people who can host these sessions. It would be great if Calendly could create a waitlist option so that if I’m not specifically available at the customer’s desired time, I could know what the customer prefers and then check with my team to see if anyone else is available to lead that learning session with the customer.
Hi
Yes while it is not a current feature, I do think this is a fantastic idea. I’ve gone ahead and sent this over to our product team. I was able to find a request made for this already, so hopefully with more support, we’ll see this in the future!
Hello, I would second that request. My clients somehow are left with no immediate optionsfor scheduling and it would be great to have a waitlist option. Do you have a sense on the timing of getting this product available?

Hi! I’d like to third this request - we host training sessions with a pretty high demand, so sometimes we end up booked out weeks for customers to be able to schedule a training.
The issue is, sometimes a customer has to cancel same-day because of the industry we work in. It would be great for us to have a sort of “waitlist” for customers who have requested a training session weeks out, so that we could reach out to those customers if we have a cancellation and offer a sooner time for them, rather than them having to wait even though we have open spots available that day.
I'd like to support the request for a waitlist feature for our business’s training sessions. Due to high demand, our sessions often get booked weeks in advance. Unfortunately, we experience same-day cancellations that leave open slots, while other customers are required to wait multiple weeks to schedule a session.
A waitlist would allow us to:
- Optimize training session capacity: Fill last-minute cancellations efficiently.
- Reduce customer wait times: Offer sooner training opportunities to waitlisted customers.
- Improve customer satisfaction: Provide a better and more flexible experience.
I’d also like to support the request. It takes up a huge amount of my time to inform waiting clients about a free timeslot.
I would also like to support the request. This would automate a lot of second order booking issues.
Thanks
