Hosts have 24 hours to accept or decline your request, but the vast majority reply within 12 hours. Chances are, it'll be even quicker: More than half of all trip requests are accepted within one hour of the Host reading it.

Your reservation status keeps you updated on all kinds of things, such as whether you're confirmed or need to do something like verify your ID or leave a review. To check it, either find the message thread with the Host in your inbox, or go to Trips and click or tap Show more trip plans, then Show details.
?Confirmed? is a single segment status vs. standby, but in the general sense, it means the space is reserved and your ticket has been issued. Always make sure any booking actually has a ticket number associated with it.
A pending reservation has not charged your card on file and is not a set-in-stone reservation. You have sent the owner a booking request and the owner needs to accept the reservation on their end. This will stay in pending status until either the owner accepts the request or the request expires after 24 hours.
You will receive a reservation confirmation email to let you know about the upcoming reservation, which will include a link to view the full itinerary on Airbnb: You can also get this information by logging into Airbnb and going to Reservations.
