AirBnB listed as a business actively working in the illegal settlements of the Occupied West Bank

[Lee-Anne27]

Hello AirBnb - I cannot find any other way to message you about this so community forum it is.

I would like to understand what actions, if any, AirBnB is choosing to take to have their name removed from the list of 158 business that are actively doing business in the illegal settlements of the occupied West Bank.

I would like to continue using AirBnB but I (and many like me) will be seeking alternatives like direct bookings rather than using the services of businesses on this list.

Thanks

Lee-Anne

If you do a quick search on Google you will find that when Airbnb tried to stop hosts operating in the illegal settlements in the West Bank - a powerful Israeli backed lobby in the US took them to court  and forced Airbnb to continue to allow hosting in the illegal settlements. @Lee-Anne27
