SHOPEE MALAYSIA is determined to keep the festive spirit alive this CNY at all costs. Despite the ongoing pandemic, Shopee is celebrating this Lunar New Year with a bang through exciting promotions, entertainment and collaborations.
As part of its latest CNY Travel Campaign, Shopee is partnering with three local travel companies – Agoda, Airpaz, and Easybook.com to bring loved ones together during this festive season. This initiative was inspired by the increase of travel bookings on its platform.
“It is encouraging to see the recovery of the travel industry on Shopee as people start to make plans again,” said Shopee’s head of marketing, Kenneth Soh in his speech during the launch.
The marketer continued, “We will continue to work closely with our travel partners to provide a seamless, safe, and stress-free booking experience for flights, buses and hotels on our platform so Malaysians will have a memorable and enjoyable reunion this Chinese New Year.”
As such, users will enjoy a 10% discount (capped at RM 20) on bus tickets, hotel, or flight bookings via the Tickets, Top-Ups & Bills in app-portal on Shopee.
In addition, users who booked during the campaign period (from today to the 26th January) will also stand a chance to win 3 days/2 nights stay at Camar Langkawi Resort with RM250 Flights vouchers.
Cleland Robertson, Country Director of Agoda, is confident that “this partnership with Shopee makes travel even more accessible, and as seamless and hassle-free as possible”.
In fact, the partnership is expected to cause a 100% increase in air travel bookings according to Airpaz Vice President, Wesley Wijaya. “We are expecting a positive rebound as people are now more confident in travelling given the increase in vaccination rate, and reopening of travel routes.”
“We hope that air travel will fully recover by the end of 2022,” said Wesly. This optimism was echoed by Easybook.com’s Managing Director, William Lee. Writing in his statement, Lee disclosed the potential for sales of bus tickets to surge up during this Chinese New Year.
