Today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued new guidance regarding travel and COVID-19.

You can read more about the CDC guidance here. 

While everyone needs to continue to be responsible, this updated guidance is great news for Airbnb Hosts and guests. According to our research, the type of travel people have missed the most is visiting with family and friends. Business travel is the type of travel they have missed the least. Connecting with family and friends is also the type of travel that has grown most in importance as people look to travel after the pandemic: 41 percent say such travel has become “much more” important to them, almost twice the percentage who cite travel to accomplish personal goals (22%).

If you are looking forward to traveling in the weeks and months ahead to connect with family and friends, here are some of our most wishlisted listings for family travel:
