Connecting with others

Connections is a way to stay in touch with the people you travel with on Airbnb.

However you travel or host, it’s good to know that all your messages are organized and searchable in one place.

Find out what guests can view on each other's profiles during a reservation and how to change your profile visibility.

Message any of your connections directly on Airbnb. First messages to people you haven't connected with yet go through as a request.

You can block a user from viewing your profile and direct messaging with you on Airbnb.

Something not right about how a host or guest is portraying themselves on their Airbnb profile? Report their profile.

Review your collection of travel stamps and share the listings from your past trips.

The travel map shows you where your connections have traveled on Airbnb, and where you've been.

Choose whether your past and upcoming trips show up on the travel map for your connections—trip by trip, or all at once.
