Buffer period

This “buffer period” is a very usefull idea.
But it would be great if it an additional option could be set: to apply only on existing booking.
For example, Dave (personal trainer) is avaiable from 9am to 6pm.
But for outside coaching, he would need additional time to be locked on a purchased appointment, 30 min to onsite, and 30min to come bakc to the club.
At this time, with the buffer option, he would be avaiable only every 2 hours (if min block bookable 1 hour)

    Yes – very frustrating that this option is missing. Pretty much any booking with a resource – person, room, equipment – would need to be a buffer between bookings, but NOT such that it limits availability of the Bookable product before bookings are made.

    I would also need this!

    This is urgently needed! Shame to see that 3.5 yrs later this still hasn’t been implemented.
