Introduction
Airbnb has made some changes.
You can now check in on your trip from the desktop site and mobile app.
For the first time, you can now buy and sell things in your home.
It’s now easier to find places that are available for short stays, and there’s a new option that lets you book a place with just 15 minutes’ notice.
Airbnb has also added more properties around major cities so that people can have more options when traveling with their families or small groups of friends, like friends from college or coworkers who want to see each other before they go back to work.
Airbnb expands to cover the entire travel journey
Airbnb has expanded to cover the entire travel journey, from booking your accommodation to finding alternative ways of getting from A to B.
Airbnb has partnered with Expedia so that customers can access its services on their mobile apps and desktop websites.
You’ll be able to book an apartment or house using the Airbnb app, check rates for nearby hotels in real-time; and get recommendations based on your preferences—all through a single interface that makes it easy for travellers of all ages and backgrounds.
Airbnb launched Airbnb Plus to showcase high-quality homes
Airbnb Plus is the newest addition to the Airbnb platform, and it’s designed exclusively for hosts who want to offer a unique and memorable experience.
Airbnb Plus hosts provide an upscale experience in their homes, from the furniture and decor to their ability to cook or grill food, host wine tastings or even movie nights. They also have access to enhanced services like concierge assistance if you need something done around your home or want recommendations on local restaurants. These features can help guests feel at ease during their stay in your home while giving you more opportunities for revenue from booking stays on Airbnb Plus properties.
Now available in more than 50 cities around the world
Airbnb Plus is now available in more than 50 cities around the world. It’s a way for hosts to showcase their best homes on Airbnb, and it also makes sure that these homes are comfortable and well-designed. In addition to having access to all of the same tools as standard hosts, Plus members have access to new features like:
- A home inspection prior to booking—to make sure that you’re getting what you pay for
- The ability to add photos of your own furniture or decorating style (if you want guests who love colour!)
- An online articles section where guests can learn about local culture or get advice from locals.
Addressing discrimination by building a more inclusive community
Airbnb has added a new policy for hosts to accept guests regardless of race, religion, national origin, disability, sex or gender identity.
Airbnb also now requires users to be respectful of each other and their community by prohibiting discrimination in all forms; this includes racism and harassment.
The company is making sure that people know how they should go about reporting inappropriate content on the platform—and it’s working with law enforcement to make sure that anyone who violates its policies gets removed from the system immediately.
Keeping You Safe With Host Guarantee and Host Protection Insurance
Host Guarantee, which you may already have on your Airbnb account, covers your financial losses if a host does not live up to their contract. Host Protection Insurance is another feature that protects you in case of any accidents or injuries that occur during the stay. If you’re interested in this insurance coverage, we recommend contacting our team at [email protected]
Host Protection Insurance is available for hosts in over 200 countries worldwide — and it’s an important part of making sure that no matter where or when you book your next Airbnb trip (whether it’s for business travel or vacation), all of your bases are covered.
We can help you travel or host with peace of mind.
Airbnb Plus is the latest product to come from Airbnb. It’s a feature that allows you to earn more money when you host or book your home or apartment online.
Airbnb has been around for over a decade and has become one of the most popular ways to travel in cities around the world. Thousands of people use it every day, and millions more have booked their own vacation rentals through this platform since its launch in 2008.
Airbnb Plus aims at helping both hosts and guests by providing additional services such as:
- Getting paid upfront (via direct deposit) instead of waiting for funds from your earnings (which can take weeks).
- Getting paid instantly after completing an assignment if there are any issues with check-in or check-out procedures
- Know exactly what items need to be cleaned before moving out after staying at someone else’s property.
