However, with Booking you can only book a single slot. You could try to book multiple slots sequentially - but this would be confusing
There is a uservoice to book multiple slots here:

In terms of proposing times, you can't do that either currently - no ability to do that in the external booking page, or from Outlook. There is a uservoice that kind of calls for this too

However, if these don't account for what you want you can raise a uservoice here too and get others to vote it up to push it up the agenda
Hope that has answered your question
