Booking.com profits from Israeli war crimes by allowing rentals located in illegal settlements in occupied Palestine.
In September 2022, the company announced it would label illegal settlements as ‘occupied territory’, however by the end of the same month, it overturned this decision, further highlighting its wilful complicity in Israeli apartheid and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.

In May 2025, Booking.com removed a Kyoto guesthouse called Wind Villa after they asked an Israeli tourist to sign a declaration that he had not committed war crimes.
The No Tech for Apartheid initiative, alongside B.WorkersforPalestine, have also now launched a ‘Stop Booking Apartheid’ campaign as a response to the “internal repression of Palestine solidarity in Booking.com”.
