It is just so strange that this word is used by hoteliers, yet it is not referenced a single time on onelook.com in any of the nearly 1,000 sources. I wonder why not?

Well, thank goodness for that, tsuwm! And what a service you would be providing for all those hoteliers looking up the correct spelling of disponibility online!

I just had a browse of Webster's Third New International, and it has..
disponible : capable of being placed, arranged, or disposed of as one wishes : AVAILABLE
edit - yes, rack rate (also rack-rent).

Ah, disponible is listed once on onelook, though disponibility isn't listed at all.
However, here's a cool phrase and definition thereabouts:
"in a restaurant, on a menu, etc: no longer available as a choice Example: Peas are off.
French: ne plus être disponible"
