Not if they travel to France and they can be hosted.
@Leon134 is in Indonesia.
If the contract is lawful like in France , guests should not be repaid without host’s agreement if the host can welcome him.
If the guest pay with a gold amex, he is repaid when there are gouvernemental travel restrictions.
There are plenty of travel insurances.
This is why many travellers were repaid by Airbnb and their insurance.
This scam is well known.
The problem is that in this case Airbnb participates actively to rip off the host and their responsability is engaged because they don’t apply the contract and they convert the lease contract into insurance contract.
Insurance is a regulated profession (like banks).
Hosts don’t have the right (on a legal point of you) to do an insurance work.
