• Areas available for reservations

These areas are displayed within areaIds array, together with the priority set for each. Depending on this priority, the areas are allocated automatically when making a reservation or you must indicate the correct one when creating the reservation. If the area with the highest priority isn’t available, choose the next one and so on.
