In this week’s episode, Sarah and Leo discuss the latest developments shaping the European travel and hospitality industry. They explore the rise of outdoor hospitality with OlaCamp’s €10M raise, new EU travel regulations requiring fingerprints and facial scans, and what Google's AI updates mean for trip planning. The duo also unpacks the EU’s Digital Markets Act and its implications for Airbnb and Google, plus the sudden shutdown of business-stay platform Homelike. Packed with sharp insights and healthy cynicism, this episode looks at how regulation, innovation, and shifting traveler preferences are redefining the landscape.
