Domestic flight booking services introduced by Amazon India
Amazon Takeoff: Flights Now Available on Your Favorite App!
Fed up with hopping from one travel site to another for your flight bookings? Say hello to hassle-free flying with Amazon India! Now you can book flights right from the Amazon Pay page on their mobile app and website. No more juggling multiple apps, just a quick and easy process to secure your flight tickets.
Amazon has heard its shoppers' calls for more services and is here to deliver. With the addition of flight bookings, customers can now shop, transfer money, pay bills, recharge their phones, and, you guessed it, book flights - all in one single app!
Imagine using your existing Amazon account details for your flight bookings. Now that's a time saver! Gone are the days of re-entering your contact details and payment information every time. Amazon shows you the total payable amount upfront, including all applicable charges like convenience fees, so there are no hidden costs.
What if you need to cancel a ticket? No sweat. You'll only pay the airline cancellation penalty, with Amazon waiving any extra charges. Amazing, right?
The fun doesn't stop there! Customers get rewarded with a seamless experience - the best offer automatically gets applied, and nobody likes having to remember coupon codes. And, during the launch period, there are rewards galore for everyone! All customers can enjoy cashback up to INR 1,600, and Prime members can score extra rewards up to INR 2,000.
Shariq Plasticwala, Director at Amazon Pay said, "Amazon users already love the convenience of shopping and paying in one single app. Now, we're excited to add domestic flight bookings and give customers more reasons to love their Amazon experience. Prime members can enjoy additional perks too."
It's worth noting that Amazon India offers this flight booking functionality mainly through its Amazon Pay feature, which supports UPI, wallet transactions, and direct bank account payments for a secure payment experience. So why wait? Get ready to take off with Amazon India!
(Note: Prime members receive enhanced shopping and entertainment benefits, but there are currently no announced exclusive advantages specifically for flight bookings at this time. Prime members mainly enjoy benefits such as free/expedited delivery for shopping, early access to exclusive deals, and access to exclusive entertainment content on Prime Video.)
As Shariq Plasticwala, Director at Amazon Pay, stated, "We're excited to add domestic flight bookings to Amazon's services, providing a lifestyle enhancement for our customers who can now shop, manage their finances, and book flights all in one single app – a perfect blend of technology and travel."
With flight bookings now available on the Amazon Pay page, Prime members can further optimize their everyday life by earning rewards during the launch period, such as cashback up to INR 2,000, in addition to their existing shopping and entertainment benefits.
