Airbnb is bannning some guests to curb parties

Airbnb will ban some younger U.S. guests from booking homes in their area as part of a continuing effort to crack down on unauthorized parties.

The San Francisco-based home sharing company said U.S. guests under age 25 with fewer than three positive Airbnb reviews won’t be allowed to book entire homes close to where they live. Airbnb wouldn’t reveal how it defines what is “close.” Those guests still will be allowed to book homes elsewhere, and they will be allowed to book hotel rooms or private rooms, the company said.
