AirAsiaGo, which is operated by AirAsiaExpedia, said the innovation would help consumers book flights and hotel packages via the mobile Internet.
Consumers can also enjoy mobile-exclusive deals saving up to 40 per cent on a hotel reservation.
“This application will come in very handy when [booking] a sudden trip such as business trip or weekend getaway, as it will allow consumers to book on the go and still get the mobile-exclusive deal,” said Darren Goh, general manager of AirAsiaGo.
By launching the app at this time, the firm expects the new feature to simplify planning for people’s year-end holidays.
Korakot Ekthanutt, head of marketing for Thailand, said the app was developed by top engineers at Expedia. It is supported by a beautiful and intuitive user interface to make travel planning much easier. The real-time itinerary with push notification can be used throughout users’ trips and can be downloaded on iOS as well as Android.
