Our Major Disruptive Events Policy (the “Policy”) explains how Airbnb handles cancellations and refunds when large-scale events prevent or legally prohibit completion of a reservation. The Policy excludes weather or natural conditions that are common enough to be foreseeable in a given location, except when they result in another covered Event (as defined in the Policy) that prevents completion of the reservation, such as a mandatory evacuation order or large-scale outage of essential utilities. Below is a non-exhaustive list of the most common foreseeable weather events, natural conditions and endemic diseases. This list is subject to change over time, and users should consult this page for updates.
We encourage guests to research their destination before booking and carefully review their reservation’s cancellation policy.
