Airbnb has seen a 13% increase in its second-quarter revenues year on year to $3.1bn (£2.4bn), driven by higher nights stayed, a small increase in average daily rates and the timing of Easter.

The company stated that despite global economic uncertainty early in the quarter, travel demand picked up and nights booked accelerated from April to July. 

In Q2 2025, it reported 134.4 million nights and seats booked, up 7% on the year, with growth across all regions and the strongest increases in Latin America and Asia Pacific.

In newer markets, nights booked grew at twice the rate of core markets. Japan was highlighted as a strong performer following a domestic travel marketing campaign.

Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation rose 17% to $1bn (£800m). The company repurchased $1bn (£800m) of Class A common stock during the quarter and announced a new $6bn (£4.42bn) share buyback programme. 

Its fully diluted share count fell to 652 million, down from 673 million a year earlier.

In May, Airbnb launched Airbnb Services and reworked Airbnb Experiences, alongside a redesigned app, which it said had received positive early feedback from guests and hosts.

Looking ahead, the company is expanding its artificial intelligence-powered customer service agent to all US users, reducing by 15% the number of hosts and guests needing to contact a human agent. It plans to extend this to more countries and languages later this year.

Brian Chesky, Airbnb co-founder and chief executive, said: “We had a strong Q2, exceeding expectations across our key metrics, which reflects the progress we’ve made against our priorities, including unveiling Airbnb’s next chapter. 

“We’re excited by the early momentum behind the launch of Airbnb services and reimagined Airbnb experiences, and believe both will be key contributors to long-term growth.”
