On Monday’s Good Morning Hospitality, A Skift Podcast, Wil Slickers, Michael Goldin, Brandreth Canaley, and Jamie Lane break down the latest headlines shaping short-term rentals and travel strategy.
The team starts with how Airbnb is seeing weaker-than-expected FIFA World Cup 2026™ - Canada, Mexico and the United States demand in New York City while nearby New Jersey markets are benefiting from stricter STR rules limiting supply in the city.
They then unpack how recent disruptions in the Middle East exposed the limits of AI-powered customer service during major travel crises before turning to a new bill in Arizona that would expand state oversight of short-term rentals.
The episode wraps with AirDNA's Jamie Lane sharing February short-term rental market data and early demand signals as operators head into the spring and summer travel season.
