AirDine discontinued their service after 31 October 2017.
Operations
AirDine was an online marketplace for home dining that connected users that liked to cook with users looking for a dining experience. Users were categorized as "Hosts" and "Guests," both of whom needed to register with AirDine.[6] AirDine acted as a two-sided market for home dining that allowed hosts and guests, and did not act as a restaurant or host any dinners itself. AirDine charged a service fee.[5] Security and safety of the host were not vetted by AirDine and were completely left to users based on published reviews.[7]
Profiles included user reviews and shared social connections to build trust among users. AirDine also included a private messaging system.
