Airbnb
Hosts must maintain their own insurance coverage
If your insurance lapses, you're required to notify Airbnb immediately. Their coverage only kicks in as excess. You're the primary safety net here.
Canceling confirmed bookings triggers fees and penalties
The consequences include fees, calendar blocks, and potential platform removal. What counts as a 'valid' excuse is decided by Airbnb.
Bookings create contracts between users, not with Airbnb
When you book a place, you're entering a contract with the host. Airbnb is the platform connecting you. Problem with your stay? Airbnb is kind of just watching.
Cancellation policies and terms can be changed at any time
What applied when you listed your property or made your booking might not be what applies tomorrow. The terms page is a living document.
Service fees are non-refundable even if host cancels
Booked a place that suddenly became 'unavailable'? You'll get your accommodation money back, but Airbnb keeps their cut. Disruption!
