Helpful tips for a winning trip

Be considerate of your neighbors. Being a good guest starts with respecting your host’s home and the surrounding community. Airbnb asks that you follow a few simple rules: treat your host’s space as you would your own, follow all house rules, and communicate promptly if anything comes up.

Before your stay, review your host’s listing description and house rules to learn about quiet hours, parking, and local expectations. During your stay, be mindful of noise levels, respect any off-limits areas, and follow all smoking and prohibited item policies. Be sure to check whether visitors are allowed.

As a reminder, Airbnb has a strict no-parties policy. Disruptive gatherings and open-invitation events are never permitted, and hosts cannot authorize exceptions. Guests and hosts who violate this policy may face consequences, including removal from Airbnb.

If something comes up during your stay, reaching out to your host directly is often the fastest way to resolve it. Use Airbnb’s messaging feature, to connect with your host before, during, or after your stay to ask questions, share details, or address any concerns.

In case of emergency or if you are in immediate danger, dial 911 to request assistance from police, fire, or emergency medical services.

During the tournament, local authorities will be working to prevent criminal activity, including human exploitation and trafficking. If you encounter a situation that you think could be human trafficking, call the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888, text 233733, or chat via humantraffickinghotline.org/chat. Additionally, please report the situation to Airbnb.

If you’re an Airbnb host, consider joining a free webinar from Polaris, a leading anti-trafficking organization. You’ll get tips on welcoming guests safely and spotting potential warning signs of trafficking.

You can help prevent scams by paying and communicating with hosts only through the Airbnb platform and declining any requests for off-platform payment. If you suspect fraud, report it to the Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov and to Airbnb.

Bring a refillable water bottle and a reusable bag for your trip. If you’re attending a match, check the stadium guidelines to see what you can bring.

Minimize waste where you can and dispose of it properly, using recycling and compost bins when available. Always clean up after yourself.

Use water and energy wisely. When you leave your accommodations, turn off lights and unplug appliances you aren’t using, including air conditioners.

Consider walking, biking, or using public transportation when available.
