Airbnb offering free stays for a year

Monday, 10 Jun, 2021 0

Airbnb launched a new initiative – ‘Live Anywhere on Airbnb. – offering a year of free stays.

Airbnb will cover the cost of accommodations and provide an allowance for transportation for the duration of the program, as long as users share their experiences to help inform future product upgrades.

Participants will provide real world insights on features, services, and the experience of nomadic living.

Airbnb is seeking a diverse set of 12 individuals who wish to be part of the program for 12 consecutive months from July 2021 to July 2022.

Airbnb will assist with listing suggestions, local experiences and more.

It could be young families, remote workers, creatives, empty nesters or others.

The purpose is to offer insights into possible product changes and resources that could help improve the long-term living experience, and give a better understanding of the financial benefits of hosting while traveling.

Participants who choose to host their primary residence on Airbnb during the program will be able to test the experience and opportunity of hosting while living nomadically, by potentially earning extra money while they travel.

Each participant will be allowed to bring up to three companions.

According to the Airbnb Report on Travel & Living, the percentage of stays lasting 28 days or longer on Airbnb increased by 10% in the first quarter of 2021 in nights booked.

It found 11% long-term stay bookers in 2021 reported living a nomadic lifestyle.

Participants can submit their applications at www.airbnb.com/liveanywhere.
