Airbnb said Tuesday it will cut almost 1,900 jobs as the short-term home rental company deals with the fallout from a travel industry wracked by upheaval stemming from the coronavirus pandemic.

Brian Chesky, Airbnb’s chief executive and co-founder, made the announcement in a letter sent to company employees, and posted on the Airbnb website. While not mentioning coronavirus or COVID-19 by name, Chesky left no doubt about what was behind the decision to shed approximately 25% off Airbnb’s 7,500 jobs.
