Can't wait. AirBnB is one of the worst offenders here.

  Interestingly, I believe Australia already did this, and so if you go to Airbnb’s Australia site you see the real prices. Personally I hope this apppies to “resort fees” at hotels; it’s ridiculous that hotels can have a mandatory fee that they can exclude from their posted price.

    Indeed, in Australia it's already a law. It's a well-known hack - go to airbnb dot com site and append .au to get the the full price including all fees.

    Agreed— “resort fees” are totally insane in places like Vegas and Hawaii. Even at hotels that aren’t actually resorts! Just because you have a pool and a gym doesn’t make you a resort!

  Airbnb isn’t even cheaper or more convenient for most travel situations.

    It wasn't always so, but the hotel industry is large and powerful.

    Never?

      Obviously you can never say never, but in my experience AirBnB is very rarely more economical than a full service hotel. And residential homes are rarely in as convenient a location as a hotel.

    This has been very true for several years now, unless you need a kitchen.
