Springtime is just around the corner, and that means tourism in our region will soon be in full bloom. Many of us will be taking long weekends, going to the shore, or a bit inland. Where will you stay? Are you going traditional...a hotel? Or will you be using a service such as Airbnb? What effect does services such as Airbnb have on the hotel industry and tourism...and how do they fit in with local zoning regulations? Our guests:
- Ginny Kozlowski, executive director, Connecticut Lodging Association
- Kristen Jarnagin, president/CEO, Discover Long Island
- Liz DeBold Fusco, Northeast press secretary, Airbnb
- Jim Morrison, Greenport resident, Airbnb renter
