GRAB & SIA APP TIE UP ALLOWS PASSENGERS TO TAKE GRAB RIDE TO AIRPORTS

Travelers to Southeast Asia can now book a Grab ride to the airport through the Singapore Airlines app, the companies announced yesterday.

In the joint media statement, Grab and SIA said they were integrating their apps for customers in 6 countries – Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

Customers who add their trip to the SIA app will now be able to see a Grab ride option starting from 7 days before their flight. Choosing this option will allow them to be redirected to the Grab app with a preset route straight to the airport.

The first 5,000 customers to use this function will receive GrabPay credit of S$10 in their digital wallet. Additionally, members of Grab’s GrabRewards programme will also have the flexibility to convert their points into KrisFlyer miles.
