P2P BUSINESSES ARE
CHANGING THE WAY PEOPLE
TRAVEL both domestically and
abroad
In the sharing economy, peer-to-peer (P2P)
accommodation, car sharing and taxi services
have been among the fastest-growing sectors. By
2016, Airbnb is expected to surpass the number
of rooms booked per night by the world’s largest
hotel chain, and it already accounts for 10% of
overnight stays in London. As of March 2015,
Uber drivers globally were providing more than
twice the number of rides per day as all the taxis
in New York City. The car sharing industry grew by
a factor of more than 15 between 2006 and 2014
