Airbnb Inc.’s recovery from the travel slump caused by Covid-19 has been so swift that the startup’s much-anticipated stock listing is still on the table for 2020, Chief Executive Officer Brian Chesky said.
“We’re not ruling it out this year, but we’re definitely not committing to a time line right now,” Chesky said in an interview with Emily Chang on Bloomberg Television Monday. “We’re still a little early in this crisis for me to feel clear enough about how this is going to play out.”
