If you have a booking I would take what I could now, even if it is losing out a certain percentage. Better in your pocket than theirs.

The contract says air B and B can override its strict cancellation policies. That is not right to me but I don’t know if something that could legally challenge the contract. I would be interested what an attorney would say.

They can easily afford to compensate owners and guests for the next year for cancellations. There is no reason owners should receive nothing when they have done no wrong. Owners may depend on rentals to pay property taxes whereas guests are usually taking a vacation. Air B and should refund both guests and owners. Guests could have gotten insurance to cover their trips under strict cancellation policies.

Hello, they changed the “policy” ? wel, if you have reserved after 14/3 you will get … nothing !
and more, if you try to cancel you receive ” oups ” a technical error “500”, try also tthe “call us” .

I am not surprised, there are many people that will get money about that shit and “Air” is clearly one of them.

Do you think there will be a class action lawsuit against Airbnb Contract Fraud?

The financial loss for AirBNB hosts is substantially more than for guests at this current time. The AirBNB unilateral decision to ignore host’s cancellation policies is going to cause substantially more financial harm to hosts than to guests or AirBNB. Personally I hope that hosts vote with their feet and remove their listings from AirBNB in the future. The guest complaining above losses a deposit (which would be insured) but the hosts now face losing their livelihood!

I would go back and double check with them. Airbnb are no different from many other rental companies, I lost 20% on a booking.com reservation, as you say difficult times and in allot of regards but I did not feel sore about losing 20% knowing that in at lest some small way I was helping to support a business or person somewhere. Trying times for everyone, we are all in this together.
