San Francisco/IBNS: Vacation rental Airbnb has hit a record high by booking close to 104 mln nights during the April through June period on the backs of strong travel demand.

On the booking front, Airbnb clocked a 26 percent jump in bookings during the April-June period compared to the previous year.
