Airbnb Expands Beyond Stays with New Services and App Overhaul. Airbnb is setting its sights on becoming more than just a vacation rental platform. With a new app redesign, the company aims to evolve into the "end-to-end travel app" that CEO Brian Chesky has long envisioned. After launching services like "Airbnb Experiences" and packages combining lodging, food, and transportation, the pandemic shifted Airbnb's focus back to its core business. Now, the company is reintroducing its broader vision with new features, including the "Airbnb Services" section. This allows guests to book services such as chefs, massage therapists, and personal trainers right at their accommodations.This expansion is set to position Airbnb against competitors like Expedia and Kayak, as well as traditional hotels offering full amenities. But with an uncertain economic outlook and a slight dip in Airbnb's stock price, the company faces challenges in growing its bookings in the near term.
