Is it just me, or is the 'return to normal' narrative for travel companies a bit shaky?

I'm seeing a lot of articles and hearing from leadership about how strong the travel market is right now, and Airbnb is supposed to be perfectly positioned. But honestly, when I look at what's happening in the industry beyond the surface-level buzz, it feels more complex. We've had some whispers about hiring slowdowns in specific areas, and I've seen discussions about how some roles are being re-evaluated. It makes me wonder if the 'boom' is going to last, or if companies like ours are already bracing for a potential slowdown or a shift in how they operate. It's not a layoff report, but the uncertainty is palpable. Anyone else in the travel tech space feel this disconnect between the public narrative and internal realities?
