iCal sync

iCal sync is a simple way to keep two calendars in step. Each calendar publishes a feed in the iCal format, and the other imports it, so a booking on one shows as a blocked date on the other.

It's handy for connecting tools that don't have a deeper integration. iCal updates on a schedule rather than instantly, though, so for busy listings on several OTAs a real-time channel manager is the safer way to avoid double bookings.
