Private Business Traveler Abodes

The Airbnb Business Travel Program Provides Private Accomodations

— August 21, 2015 — World
This business travel program from Airbnb allows companies to house travelers in private homes and rooms, which will avoid using hotels. This program allows business people traveling abroad to rest easy in comfortable accommodations that feel more cozy and relaxing opposed to standard hotel rooms.

While Airbnb began it business travel program about a year ago, it has recently received updated features. The program will now offer a global-wide business traveler-accommodating platform. This will allow large corporate companies to find accommodations quickly, easily and in any country around the world. This program allows users to track trips, billing, secure dates and expenses all from the Airbnb microsite.

The Airbnb brand works with various home owners to provide short-term, which is ideal for business travelers. In addition, this convenient service will allow companies to book and share entire houses for teams and large groups of employees.
Trend Themes
1. Private Accommodations - The rise of private accommodations for business travelers presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the traditional hotel industry.
2. Global Business Travel Platforms - The expansion of global business travel platforms like Airbnb's business travel program opens up possibilities for disruptive innovation in the corporate travel industry.
3. Collaborative Booking Services - The emergence of collaborative booking services that enable companies to book and share entire houses for teams and large groups of employees offers opportunities for disruptive innovation in the short-term rental market.
Industry Implications
1. Hotel Industry - The hotel industry needs to adapt to the rising demand for private accommodations among business travelers or risk losing market share to alternative lodging services.
2. Corporate Travel Industry - The corporate travel industry should explore partnerships with global business travel platforms to streamline the booking process and enhance the travel experience for business travelers.
3. Short-term Rental Market - The short-term rental market can leverage collaborative booking services to attract business travelers and differentiate themselves from traditional accommodations.
