I was going to ask the same thing,. I have just joined B.com and about 80% of bookings get cancelled almost immediately. I have a 2 week cancellation policy (i.e. they have to pay in full if they cancel within 2 weeks of the booked dates) and I was wondering if people just panic when they see this on their confirmation. It seems to be this whole culture of booking on a whim and absolutely not caring if accommodation providers are left with empy rooms/apartments when guests cancel without fees. I have the same conditions on the AIRB site and never have cancellations, all very odd.
