PENANG, 26 June 2022 - Driver partners of airasia Ride, the fastest growing e-hailing provider by airasia Super App, will enjoy even more benefits as the platform collaborates with Penang Adventist Hospital (PAH) to provide them with better value health services. 

Through the partnership, all airasia ride driver partners will get to enjoy free health check-up for themselves together with another person that can be their spouse, family member or friend at PAH on 26 June 2022. Subsequently, they will also be able to undergo regular health check-ups for a period of one year until 26 June 2023 with a RM50 discount for the Essential Wellness Package, while also enjoying PAH’s Wholistic Approached Wellness (WAW) Family Privileges. 

Driver partners are not the only ones to benefit, but new users who need a ride to PAH will be able to get RM3 off their journey when they book an airasia Ride by using the promo code PAHRIDE at the check-out page. 

Lim Chiew Shan, Regional CEO of airasia Ride, said, “We take the health and wellbeing of our driver partners very seriously. We are proud to partner with PAH to offer these health benefits to our driver-partners as we always believe that by ensuring the well-being of our drivers and giving them peace of mind, they will perform their very best when on the road. Serving the underserved underpins the philosophy of the airasia brand, and we are always looking for innovative collaborations and partners to reward our dedicated drivers with more benefits, while providing the best value to our customers and app users.
