Globe, ATCAI provide safe transport for balikbayans and tourists
Globe continues to offer innovative services that are relevant not only to local consumers, but to balikbayans and foreign tourists as well, with its latest partnership with the Airport Transport Concessionaires Association Inc. (ATCAI), one of the largest providers of airport taxis in the Philippines.
Globe and ATCAI entered into a merchandising partnership to bring unique services to balikbayans and foreign tourists who will be taking airport taxis. Taking these vehicles is much safer than the standard taxis that usually circle the airport because ATCAI taxis are supervised by the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) and the Department of Tourism (DOT).
The location of airport taxis can be tracked at all times by their central office. What’s more, drivers are trained to properly interact with foreigners. Also, in cases where some items are left in the vehicle, ATCAI assures the public that their valuables can be retrieved in their office as honesty and integrity are values deeply espoused by their employees.
Aside from these assurances on safety, passengers will be given a Globe city map containing relevant travel information such as emergency numbers, hotel accommodations, hospitals, museums and shopping malls. The Globe city map also display the MRT and LRT route for easy reference of travelers.
Aside from the city map, Globe and ATCAI also offer rewards coupons that balikbayans and foreign tourists can use when they roam on Globe. The coupons entitle the consumer to avail of discounts from the following merchants provided that they show they are roaming on Globe network 30 percent off the Wow Manila Sakay Na! Hop On, Hop Off City Tour ticket, and 15 percent off any travel accessories from The Travel Club.
Consumers can also get 10 percent off any souvenir items from Kultura Filipino, and a one-day free workout and free assessment on plastic surgery, cosmetology, and physical therapy at Bodyworx Spa & Fitness Club for their health needs.
To avail of these great discounts, balikbayans and foreign tourists must connect to the Globe network, by choosing manual and selecting Globe on their mobile phone network selection settings.
