This Low-Cost Airline in Asia Just Launched a New and Improved App

With the travel industry slowly picking up alongside the easing down of travel restrictions, Asia’s largest low-cost airline enhanced its digital presence to mark a new era for the company. Unveiled on 8 Oct 2020, the new AirAsia Asean super app now lets you do more than just plan for travels — with the app, you can also experience lifestyle options, rewards, and so much more.

“Our enhanced digital platform brings forth a unique offering for the Philippine market at a time when industries are shifting and being shaped by the current health situation,” shared airasia.com Philippines CEO Ricky Isla. “We continue to innovate to expand our amazing product offerings and experiences to not just our guests but customers.”

What you can expect from the AirAsia Asean super app

Aside from letting you book a flight, the AirAsia Asean super app offers e-commerce and financial technology through more than 15 types of products and services. Among them are shopping, food, and accommodations, which you can pay for in a one-click checkout system.

“We have accelerated our digital business and expanded airasia.com’s product offering from travel to everyday life. Just like how we built AirAsia as a brand, airasia.com will emerge as the Asean super app, your best travel and lifestyle companion,” added AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes.

According to Karen Chan, who’s the CEO of airasia.com, the AirAsia Asean super app is “a testimony of airasia’s continuous innovation culture and our drive to deliver value to our customers.” Along with the improved platform, AirAsia customers can also take advantage of the AirAsia Unlimited Pass, which offers a buy-now-fly-later option similar to other carriers.

An October sale to kickstart the new offering

Along with the launch of the AirAsia Asean super app, the airline is introducing the first-ever airasia.com Super Sale which replaces the long-time Red Hot Sale. Happening from 12 to 18 Oct 2020, it will offer “storewide discounts of up to 50% across all product offerings”. These will be available in both the app and the airline’s official website.

You can score round-trip flights for as low as ₱1,914 inclusive of a 3D2N hotel stay when using AirAsia’s flight and hotel package. Up to 50% off on Philippine flights and up to 30% off on activities and tours will also be available. “Users can also earn twice as much BIG Points* during the airasia.com Super Sale period, and pay using BIG Points* for their purchases made on airasia.com,” Isla further said.
