Amazon v the new cash burning tech megacaps

AirBNB is liberal with covering refunds to unhappy guests and guest property damage to unhappy hosts.

I have never used them as I like hotels, but their website does not seem extra advanced and high cost.

I guess that might explain why I see very few “AirBnB Guest Trashed my Home!!!” articles in my news feed.

yes, out of the host’s pocket. If a guest is granted a refund, it does not come from Airbnb. And getting Airbnb to reimburse a host for damages is a rarity. There’s a reason it makes the news when it happens.

All that aside, am I really to believe that a business with 14+ % gross margins, pays out more than that 14% in claims of host damages? That makes no sense.
