Customers are able to book and manage Etihad’s chauffeur services directly through the airline’s upgraded mobile optimised website without having to call Etihad’s Contact Centre or a travel agent.
Customers can now book and confirm their chauffeur service up to 12 hours prior to their flight’s departure.
The new system, created in partnership with Vxceed Technologies, also allows guests to amend or cancel their chauffeur booking, thereby giving them greater control of their travel requirements.
The new features enable customers to receive SMS and e-mail confirmation for their scheduled pick-up.
Moreover, customers can also connect with their chauffeur prior to being collected.
The optimised chauffeur service, operated with Mercedes-Benz E-Class luxury sedans, facilitates timely pick-up and drop-off for customers, and enable them to provide their live feedback after each trip, helping to always ensure the highest level of service in line with customers’ needs.
Future system enhancements will enable Etihad Guest members to use their miles to book a private transfer for themselves within the UAE, irrespective of which cabin they are travelling in.
