Go anywhere with travel discounts from Smart, Airbnb
MANILA, Philippines - For travelers who seek culture, luxury and adventure, finding the best travel deals is important, which is why Smart Communications (Smart) and Airbnb ventured on a partnership to bring only the best travel experience to all the Filipino globetrotters out there.
According to Ariel Fermin, EVP and Head of Consumer Business at Smart, more and more Filipinos, particularly the younger ones, find the time and resources to travel around the country and abroad, and that is why providing them the access to millions of the most unique accommodations will give them a revolutionary experience.
"We are excited to bring yet another digital innovation closer to more Filipinos nationwide, this time with global pioneer in travel accommodations, Airbnb," said Fermin.
Convenient, complete and safe booking
Airbnb is changing the way people travel by opening up millions of unique accommodations in more than 34,000 cities in over 190 countries. With unique, local stays across the countries, it is easy to find somewhere to belong, wherever you go. In fact, Philippines is among the fastest growing markets for Airbnb in the region.
"Unforgettable travel experiences are literally just a few clicks away on Airbnb. With almost two million homes to choose from all over the world, tree houses, holiday villas or designer apartments are safely and easily booked on a computer, mobile phone or tablet," JJ Chai, Regional Director for South East Asia at Airbnb said.
Airbnb app is downloadable for free on App Store and Google Play Store.
Travel discount
To kick off the partnership, Smart subscribers will receive a P 2,500 discount for any Airbnb booking with a minimum spend of P8,000. All they have to do is text SMARTAIRBNB to 2855 for FREE to receive a unique promo code.
The discount is limited to one booking per subscriber, valid until December 2016. The booking has to be made by March 31, 2016 and the date of travel must be between today and December 2016.
The same discount will soon be extended to PLDT HOME subscribers, as well as selected clients of PLDT Alpha Enterprise and PLDT Smart SME Nation.
Fully embracing digital technology
The partnership is not only targeted toward Filipino travelers. Airbnb and PLDT Home and PLDT Smart SME Nation are exploring partnership opportunities targeted towards homes and unique hospitality businesses that can easily list on Airbnb. Fully embracing digital technology will empower hosts, especially in the countryside, to expand their reach and allow them to become more successful.
