Unfortunately, this is not how the policy is being implemented. If any one of multiple guests in the party decides not to travel (for any reason), but says it's due to Coronavirus, AIRBNB is processing the cancellation as extenuating circumstances. No checks and balances. AIRBNB gets 'docs', but the docs we saw did not align with the booking dates, or the info that the guest had given us about the location and composition of their group. After presenting as a San Francisco based group, they suddenly claimed to be a group of colleagues from various places, including one (of 5) from South Korea. The night before arrival they presented an airline ticket from South Korea for a trip that had occurred (or not occurred) 10 days prior to the start date of the stay. If the flight had been cancelled, this would have occurred at least 10 days ago, but they claim they had not decided to cancel the booking due to one person's absence until the night before arrival. Irresponsible. A guest who books a stay can claim anyone at all was an intended guest, after the fact, and that's what's happening. (It would be very easy to go to my office and get a copy of a ticket from the many business travelers with whom I work.) I don't think hosts should be absorbing losses in cases like this, and AIRBNB should be reviewing adequately and vetting -- and they're not. Voluntary decisions not to travel, because people are scared, should not fall within this policy, unless AIRBNB intends to cover the hosts. These people blatantly recast themselves, nothing added up, and AIRBNB just pushed it through.
