At the same time, the hotel competitor highlighted that he expects good business in the summer, also around the European soccer championship in Germany and the Olympic Games in Paris.

First-quarter revenue rose 18 percent year over year to $2.1 billion, above analyst estimates. Profits rose from $117 million a year ago to $264 million, Airbnb said. Earnings per share also significantly exceeded market expectations.

However, the sales forecast for the current quarter was cautious, between $2.68 and $2.74 billion. Analysts on average expected 2.74 billion. Last quarter's results and forecasts for the current quarter were also influenced by the fact that Easter holidays and associated travel decreased in March this year, as highlighted by Airbnb.
