airasia ride Launches in Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Seremban and Melaka

(20 Dec 2021)  Following airasia ride's recent launch in Penang and Langkawi, the ride-hailing platform has expanded into another four key Malaysian cities, namely Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Seremban and Melaka.

Aligning with its “driver-forward” strategy, airasia ride claims to offer the lowest commission rate in the industry with airasia ride drivers taking home 85% of the fares that they earn.

Drivers can also choose their preferred frequency and volume of bookings without needing to worry about being penalised.

Lim Chiew Shan, CEO of airasia ride Malaysia said, “Our simultaneous expansion into Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Seremban and Malacca is a remarkable milestone, having successfully painted the cities red in the Klang Valley, Langkawi and more recently in Penang. With the expansion, customers not only get to enjoy the best travel and lifestyle deals, but also book their rides with lower fares of around 10%-15% less than the market all through one convenient platform on the airasia Super App.”

As an added advantage, airasia ride drivers are also able to leverage the airline to secure more customers travelling to and from the airport.

Travellers flying on AirAsia will have the option to book their airport transfers upon purchasing their flights, allowing drivers to secure more passengers in advance and plan their trips more productively.

They will also have real-time information on passenger arrivals, enabling drivers to have better time management by reducing waiting time, and resulting in the ability to make more trips and earn more income.
