Should every dive operator trip be instantly bookable?

No. Some trips can support native checkout, while others should use request-to-confirm, external checkout, or host review depending on availability, readiness, and policy requirements.

What should dive operators control when publishing trips?

Dive operators should control availability posture, price, inclusions, cancellation policy, required certifications, readiness questions, capacity, confirmation mode, and content/media rights.
