One glaring deficiency is the fact that the only person required to present ID is the one who booked the listing.
This might not be someone who actually plans to stay.
If a reservation is for four people there should be four IDs on the record.
Clearly Airbnb wouldn’t be in favor of this. It would be inconvenient for people who need to book a party house for 16 guests in less than one minute.
Even if Airbnb is unwilling to require this they could make it easier for hosts to require it.
It wouldn’t have to interfere with the “book in less than one minute” stupidity. The payor could still book instantly and all others would be required to submit Government ID before arrival, and show matching ID before checkin, at the host’s discretion.
