Airbnb vs Booking.com

Airbnb attracts younger, frequent travelers (avg 38 years old, 4.2 trips/year) with flexible cancellation policies, while Booking.com targets professional properties and international guests with lower cancellation rates and requires 15-20% higher pricing to match Airbnb profitability. 67% of hosts list on both platforms, but only 23% earn more revenue doing so.
