Airbnb Teams with The Dodo on Animal-Related Travel Experiences
By Travis Riffe • October 31, 2019
Airbnb teamed up with animal-related mobile media brand “The Dodo” to introduce a new category of travel experiences. Airbnb Animal Experiences will be a destination for animal lovers to interact in personal ways with animals and their owners. The Dodo and Airbnb will develop 95 different experiences based on the media brand’s shows. For example, hiking with Penni the dog, a popular animal on The Dodo, will be offered to people visiting Arizona. The Dodo has almost 5 million subscribers — and has experienced triple-digit growth over the past two years. The partnership is the latest example of how Airbnb is promoting experiences to its users who seek more than just a place to stay.
