MANILA – Smart Communication has partnered with Airbnb Inc to offer its subscribers a discount for booking via the world’s biggest accommodation-sharing site.
Staring last week until January 2016, all Smart Prepaid, Smart Postpaid and Smart Bro subscribers will enjoy a P2500 off for a minimum of P8,000 booking, here or abroad, on Airbnb – it an apartment for a night, a castle for a week, or a villa for a month in more than 34,000 cities in over 190 countries.
Smart’s team-up with Airbnb is the latest in a string of exclusive partnerships by the telco with the world’s leading names in digital services – including the biggest names in entertainment such as iflix, FOX, MCA Music, Sony Music, and more recently, Uber, the world’s most popular ride-sharing service.
“Airbnb has revolutionized the way travelers search and book a suitable place to spend their getaways wherever they are headed around the world. It shows how a meaningful mobile innovation can shake things up and enrich the lives of people – and is very much aligned with our vision of a mobile-empowered lifestyle,” said Ariel Fermin, EVP and Head of Consumer Business at Smart.
“We are excited to reach even more Filipinos through this partnership. Unforgettable travel experiences are literally just a few clicks away on Airbnb, and we can’t wait to see where the Smart customers will go first,” said JJ Chai, Regional Director for South East Asia at Airbnb.
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. Users can text SMARTAIRBNB to 2855 for more details.
