Where are my guests coming from in the UK? Location, Covid and Lockdown!

[Sarah327]

Hi Airbnb,

I understand you are a global company but in the current and ongoing Covid-19 situation, it is now more important than ever that WHERE a guest is travelling from is provided upon booking!

I have a number of guests whose profiles simply state "Lives in England, United Kingdom". This is no longer acceptable considering the whole of England is lockdowned under various Tiers (1, 2 and 3), with those in higher risk areas (Tier 3) being advised not to travel. As a responsible host, I would like to know where ALL my guests are coming from and be able to politely decline any that are travelling from a high-risk area; for my own personal safety, so that I do not break lockdown rules and help stop the spread of infection in my local area/community.

Please, please, please will you update your systems to ENSURE this is provided!

@Sarah327  Presumably the majority of your requests are made in advance, rather than same-day.  It's impossible to know today what the risk levels and travel advisories are going to be a week or a month from now. What's the point in declining a request for future dates based on the situation on the ground today?
