Airbnb cracking down on rowdy New Year's Eve parties

Airbnb is limiting the options for folks looking to throw a New Year's Eve bash in someone else's home. 

The short-term rental service is banning certain users from booking entire properties for a single night as part of an effort to stop over-the-top New Year's Eve parties in the U.S. and 10 other countries, Airbnb said Thursday. 

"These proactive defenses will help to promote responsible travel and help to prevent rare instances of unwelcome behavior," Naba Banerjee, Airbnb's director of trust product and operations, said in a statement.
