Airbnb Highlights How Indian Women Shaped Travel Trends in 2025
Key Takeaways Almost 30% of Airbnb hosts in India are women, with almost 35% of Guest Favourite listings in India hosted by women - showcasing their excellence in hospitality. North Goa, Bengaluru, Gurugram, South Goa and Pune were the top-searched domestic destinations for Indian female travelers in 2025. Internationally, Dubai, London, Bangkok, Paris and Rome were the top-searched destinations for Indian female travelers in 2025. Duo travel emerged as the most popular trip type amongst Indian female travelers, followed by group trips. This International Womens Day, Airbnb is celebrating the growing community of women hosts and travellers who are driving hospitality and travel trends across India. Nearly 30% of Airbnb hosts in India are women (1) , and they manage almost 35% of Guest Favourite listings (2) , highlighting their impact in delivering exceptional guest experiences and shaping local tourism. Embracing this years theme, Give to Gain, Airbnb recognizes the role women play in strengthening communities through hosting and travel. By sharing their homes, culture and local knowledge, women hosts are creating economic opportunities not only for themselves but also for their communities. Highlighting Airbnbs commitment to enabling women entrepreneurs across India, Amanpreet Singh Bajaj, Airbnbs Country Head for India and Southeast Asia, said , Women who host are not just building successful businesses, but also strengthening local economies and communities. When women share their homes, skills and stories, they create opportunities not just for themselves, but for others around them. In turn, guests contribute to local livelihoods, helping circulate value deeper into communities. When women thrive, entire communities benefit. Beyond hosting, Indian women travelers are also increasingly shaping travel trends on Airbnb. Duo travel followed by small group trips remained the most popular trip type amongst Indian women travelers. In terms of destinations, internationally Dubai, London, Bangkok, Paris, Ubud, Amsterdam, Tokyo and Rome were the most searched destinations for Indian women travelers in 2025. Domestically, North and South Goa, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Jaipur, Gurugram, and Pune District were the most searched destinations. (3) Beyond established hotspots, women travellers are increasingly exploring emerging and culturally rich destinations. Dakshina Kannada and Mathura both recorded approximately 50% year-on-year increase in bookings, signalling rising interest in spiritual, heritage and nature-led travel. Internationally, the town of Kazbegi in Georgia recorded an over 100% year-on-year increase in bookings on Airbnb. (4) This growing momentum toward emerging and off-beat destinations reflects a broader shift among women travellers toward more intentional, experience-led journeys, where travel not only creates personal memories but also supports local communities and smaller tourism ecosystems. Airbnb has also been working to strengthen this ecosystem through initiatives such as the Airbnb Entrepreneurship Academy in Goa , the first of its kind in India. The program equips aspiring homestay entrepreneurs with skills in hospitality, business fundamentals and sustainable hosting, with a dedicated focus on empowering women and supporting rural communities. Many of the organizations in India receiving donations from the Airbnb Community Fund this year also work to advance opportunities for women. Sharing her journey, Babita, a Host in Uttarakhand who upskilled through the Airbnb Entrepreneurship Academy , said, Before the Airbnb Academy training, we were running a homestay without really knowing how. Airbnb taught us important skills like how to register, how to host, and how to share our culture. It gave me the confidence to grow my small idea into a sustainable livelihood. This International Womens Day, Airbnb continues its commitment to creating more inclusive opportunities for women. Through hosting and travel, women across India are helping build stronger local economies while contributing to a more diverse and resilient tourism landscape. About Airbnb Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.

Samson's Has Toughened Up Mentally, He's Come Of Age Now: Shastri
T20 World Cup: Former India coach Ravi Shastri believes Sanju Samson is mentally stronger when he bats, and this change in mindset is the reason for his good performances in the T20 World Cup. Samson has been on the fringes of India's best T20I outfit in recent years and missed selection during the early portion of the T20 World Cup when Ishan Kishan was preferred as opener and Rinku Singh was in favour. But the wicketkeeper batter has contributed consecutive Player of the Match performances to help guide India into the final of the T20 World Cup against New Zealand, with his most recent innings coming in the knockout semi-final with England in Mumbai when he struck seven sixes in a superb knock of 89 Although Samsons improved form has surprised many, Shastri was not surprised as he has noticed a clear change in the right-handers approach. I think finally realising and coming to terms with the fact that he needs to be more consistent. He's got to be wiser with his shot selection and he's got to back his strengths, Shastri said on The ICC Review. The thing with Sanju is he's got every shot in the book, but lapses in concentration. I think he's toughened up mentally and there's never anyone who's doubted his skill or talent ever since he made the side. What people have been disappointed is that the run of consistency that should have been there by now isn't there, but he's come of age now, he added. Shastri further said Samson's best form is still ahead given his role in the India team is now clearly defined. He's still just 31 years of age and a genuine match-winner. And when you see shots like (today) that is being played, there's class, there's touch there, there's power there, there's brute force. It's just unbelievable, Shastri noted. Highlighting the recent efforts of fellow opener Abhishek Sharma are of some concern heading into Sunday's final of the T20 World Cup against New Zealand, Shastri believes it's too late to make a change to India's XI and India should stick with the young opener in the tournament decider against the Black Caps. He's still just 31 years of age and a genuine match-winner. And when you see shots like (today) that is being played, there's class, there's touch there, there's power there, there's brute force.

Firecrackers, Dhols And Roars Of Joy As India Enter T20 World Cup Final
T20 World Cup: A wave of celebration swept across India after the national team edged past England in a thrilling semifinal to enter the final of the ICC Mens T20 World Cup 2026. From big cities to small towns, fans poured out onto the streets waving the Tricolour, bursting firecrackers and beating dhols (drums) late into the night. At Mumbais Wankhede Stadium, the atmosphere was electric as chants of India, India, Vande Mataram and Jeetega bhai jeetega, India jeetega echoed through the stands long after the final ball was bowled. This is unbelievable. My heart was in my mouth in the last three overs, said a college student celebrating outside the stadium. But when Bumrah bowled those yorkers, we knew India would do it. The defending champions clinched a dramatic seven-run victory to reach their second successive T20 World Cup final, holding their nerve despite a sensational century from Englands Jacob Bethell and set themselves up for becoming the first nation to win the title thrice. Earlier, India had posted a daunting 253/7, powered by a brilliant 89 from Sanju Samson. The aggressive total set the tone for a high-octane contest as England launched a fierce chase. England began in explosive fashion, racing to 68 runs in the Power Play. However, they also lost three crucial wickets, including skipper Harry Brook, who was caught brilliantly by Axar Patel off Jasprit Bumrah the Indian pacers 500th international wicket. Jos Buttler soon followed, bowled by Varun Chakravarthy with a deceptive googly that rattled the middle stump, leaving England at 64/3 in the sixth over. Yet the chase stayed alive thanks to Bethell, who produced a breathtaking innings. He smashed his half-century in just 19 balls and continued to attack relentlessly, sending the ball soaring into the stands with fearless stroke play. Inside the stadium, the crowd oscillated between tension and celebration as the English batter kept the target within reach. Bethell scared us for a while, admitted a fan draped in the Indian flag. But when Pandya got Curran out, the whole stadium erupted. Ive never heard Wankhede this loud. Bethell eventually brought up a magnificent century in just 45 balls, studded with eight fours and seven sixes, keeping Englands hopes alive deep into the chase. England needed 45 runs from the final three overs, and the match hung in the balance. But Jasprit Bumrah delivered a masterclass in death bowling, conceding just six runs in the 18th over with three pinpoint yorkers. Hardik Pandya then followed it up brilliantly in the next over, giving away only nine runs and removing Sam Curran to tilt the contest firmly in Indias favour. The decisive moment came in the final over when Bethell was run out attempting a risky second run off the very first ball. The Wankhede crowd erupted in deafening celebration as Englands hopes faded. Everyone around me was hugging strangers, said a businessman, who had travelled from Gujarat for the match. This is what cricket does in India it brings the whole country together. Although Jofra Archer struck three late sixes, the target proved too steep as England fell short by seven runs.
