Online reservation calendar question

How on earth can one single day in the middle of the week be “not available” on the calendar when there is a 2 or 3 day minimum stay? I cannot figure this out. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday are available. Wednesday is not available. Thursday, Friday, Saturday are available.

Any insight?

Imagine there is just two units, and someone reserved a Tues-Thur reservation and someone else reserved a Wed-Fri reservation. Bookending the date that is unavailable.

Ahhh...thank you! That makes sense. My brain could not come up with that on its own!

I am surprised at the number of chopped up weeks. Weird days sold old. A Sunday night only, or a Thursday night.
I can only guess it has to do with pricing for airline tickets.

I think you are definitely on to something. I usually make the drive to Florida starting after work Friday evening. As it is a 22 to 26 hour drive depending on traffic and weather I usually don't start my reservation until Sunday night even though most times we end up getting there by Saturday evening and sleeping in the car somewhere.
When I look at airfare from here it is almost always less expensive to fly on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

I do see how it happens, but sometimes it's incredibly frustrating. When I'm looking to spend a week anywhere, I see months with lots of availability in general, but one day in each week of the month is not available. Annoying, but that's the system.
