I agree, there needs to be an option to remove past trips from your Airbnb history. I was incorrectly sent an invite from a former roommate's aunt and it automatically added me to the trip... I never went. We no longer speak and every time I see my trips, it's there and it's just a reminder of bad memories. Again, I NEVER WENT on this trip so I'm not even sure why it was added to my history.
To those saying, "Make a new account!" Uhh, no. That would delete all of the REAL trips and history that belong to me. I don't want that. But if it's not a realistic portrayal of my Airbnb history, why should it be allowed to stay? At least make an option where we can contact support and with a valid reason (like NOT going on the trip) we could get it reviewed and removed from our Airbnb history.
What is the problem with adding this feature? If I get enough bad reviews, I can make a new account anyway. And if I trash someone's place or something ridiculous, I'll be banned from Airbnb, right? So what is the fear in adding this removal feature? I get the whole, "You don't want the hosts to be able to hide their negative comments" thing, but this isn't the same at all.
Should hosts be allowed to get bad reviews from guests who didn't stay with them? No. Should I have to be reminded of a trip I never took? No. Come on.
