With over 3.5 million properties, the global travel app is now travelers' single source for Stays - from hostels to five-star hotels, campsites to capsule accommodation and farm stays to floating stays. The move comes as traveler behavior continues to evolve. Skyscanner's Travel Trends 2026 report found nearly two thirds of Gen Z and Millennials (64% and 61% respectively) have chosen a destination specifically because of the place they wanted to stay. In the consumer survey of 22,000 global travelers, Gen Z also ranked 'accommodation that offer experiences, not just a bed' no.1 on their stays wish list versus Boomers who are looking for simplicity and convenience. So, whether it's unique stays, traveling in groups or seeking more authentic experiences, Skyscanner's newly rebranded Stays platform has evolved to offer much more than just the traditional travel options, providing a flexible and diverse range tailored for every traveler's preference. "Travelers are putting much more thought into where they stay, not just where they go," says Brian Plaum, Global Stays Expert. "At the same time, many people are looking to make their budget go further this summer and our Stays platform is here to help with comparing different accommodation options side by side, exploring cheaper neighborhoods and booking with more flexibility." To help travelers get away this summer, Plaum shares Skyscanner's top hacks for a summer stay: _\*Search based on prices observed on Skyscanner on May 27, 2026.
