KUALA LUMPUR – Airasia Super App is expanding its flight and hotel offerings by partnering with more than 700 international airline brands flying to over 3,000 destinations and promoting thousands of hotels worldwide.

“Hotel partnerships have also continued to grow with over 300,000 hotels now available on the super app,” she said during the airasia Super App announcement here today.

Woo said with these expanding collaborations, airasia Super App users could now secure great value travel deals to many destinations outside of AirAsia’s network, including across Europe, Oceania, Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas.

She noted that the app with its comprehensive portfolio of travel and lifestyle products is well-poised to provide the best value to customers to unlock a more diverse travel offering.

We will continue to collaborate creatively with other industry players to stimulate travel demand and complete our product offering as the one-stop platform for all our customer’s travel and lifestyle needs,” she said.

To celebrate its partnership with new airline partners, airasia Super App is offering a three-day special promotion of up to 50% off for flights from Kuala Lumpur to London, Istanbul, Helsinki, Abu Dhabi, Phuket and Bangkok.

On the outlook, she said airasia Super App saw a super spike in terms of demand on airline and hotels after the government lifted the travel restrictions for both domestic and international flights.

Meanwhile, head of flights Rajiv Kumar said customers would be able to combine extensive flight inventory and offer itineraries with attractive discounted fares using the virtual interlining technology offered by the app. – Bernama, October 28, 2021
