The last year has proven to be a challenging year for the travel and tourism industry, including the short-term rental market. Booming companies such as Airbnb and Vrbo were hit hard, decreasing their bookings by 25-30% below 2019's level.

A year later, the short-term rental market as a whole has yet to recover from the pandemic’s fallout. Having access to high-quality data such as supply growth, demand patterns, pricing changes, and property management activities will be crucial for property managers, hosts, tourism bodies, distributors and investors, to make smarter, fact-based decisions.

In this webinar, Alejandra Aranzadi (Data Partnerships Manager at CARTO) and Pierre Becerril (CEO & Co-founder of Transparent) explore the current state of short-term rentals and how to use vacation rental data to inform your strategy as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic.

What you’ll learn:

- How travel has changed and what to expect as the industry begins to pick up
- New travel trends emerging through recovery
- Strategies for optimizing revenues in this new climate
