Gifting someone their dream holiday for Christmas just got easier, with the Airbnb Gift Card launching in the UK ahead of the festive season. 

The Airbnb Gift Card unlocks access to the platform’s vast collection of unique homes around the world and one-of-a-kind Airbnb Experiences. Whether it’s friends, family, partners, colleagues, there’s an Airbnb Gift Card for everyone. 

Each card can be used to help scratch any individual  travel itch, from opting for a two week stay in a far-flung destination to a unique overnight booking in the UK. Suited to a time-poor shopper or for travel enthusiast friends and family, the new Gift Card is the ultimate gift that will create lasting memories long after the festive season.

And for those with accommodation already booked in, the Gift Card can also be used to enjoy Airbnb Experiences both in-person and online for an unforgettable  and unique experience on a trip or from home. Holidaymakers can pick and choose between all kinds of activities and interests, whether that’s for nature lovers, art enthusiasts, foodies, history buffs or zen seekers.  

The Airbnb Gift Card can be purchased from airbnb.com/giftcard from 9 November, and in Tesco and Morrisons stores from today. 

Christmas gifting can be notoriously stressful and last-minute, so we’re excited to be launching the Airbnb Gift Card in the UK – a gift for the holidays that will capture the heart of any globetrotter. The booking possibilities really are endless and with the vast variety of stays and experiences on Airbnb, you’ve got the world at your fingertips. We hope that these Gift Cards can make the upcoming festivities extra special this year and get everyone excited for what lies ahead in 2022.”
