India's Jet Airways has tied up with Airbnb, creating more global hospitality options for Indian tourists. In a statement, the airline said, “The partnership will not only offer a strong and differentiated value to Jet Airways' guests, but also give momentum to the growth of Airbnb's footprint in the Indian market by establishing a deeper connect with the new-age Indian traveller, who is increasingly seeking unique and interesting experiences while travelling both in India as well as around the world.”
Jet's Chief Commercial Officer Jayaraj Shanmugam said, “An increasing number of Indian travellers are embracing the fresh and highly personalised experiences that a platform like Airbnb offers. Our focus on being innovative and offering differentiated travel experiences enables us to anticipate the changing needs of our guests and recognise trends much earlier than the market, thus allowing us to offer exciting travel related initiatives. We are delighted to be the first Indian airline to partner Airbnb, and look forward to creating more of such innovative experiences for our guests.”
