The summer travel season is showing signs of weakness, especially in the U.S., where airlines, hotels and short-term rentals are being hit by Trump’s trade policies, consumer caution and economic uncertainty. According to AirDNA, U.S. short-term rental bookings are down sharply at lower price points, while demand for luxury properties remains more stable. In contrast, bookings in Europe are up, particularly for high-end rentals. The divide reflects broader trends: lower-income Americans are cutting back, while affluent travelers continue to spend. AirDNA’s data suggests this “two-speed” market could reshape travel patterns heading into the rest of 2025.

AirDNA finds U.S. summer rental demand falling at lower price points while luxury travel holds steady and European bookings rise.
