Standard Chartered and Brand Expedia are launching a three-year global collaboration that offers the Bank’s cardholders in four countries a suite of attractive benefits and discounts on hotels and holiday packages booked on Expedia1. The alliance covers Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates. There will be 10% discount on hotel bookings and other discounts on holiday packages. Other travel benefits in the first year include discounts on airport transfers. The discounts and benefits vary per market. For more information, clients should visit their local Standard Chartered website.

Expedia is the world’s leading full-service online travel brand, helping millions of travellers easily plan and book their travel each month by providing them with the choices and savings they need. The company provides travellers with access to booking over hundreds of thousands of hotels and other lodging options, airlines, car rentals and activity packages.

Neil Daswani, Global Head of Corporate Partnerships, Retail Banking, at Standard Chartered said:
“Standard Chartered and Brand Expedia are literally going places with this tie-up. Our mutual clients like to travel and they like to be rewarded. This collaboration offers our clients rewards and travel opportunities across multiple markets, whilst at the same time assuring them of a continuous and compelling offer provided by a recognised global travel leader.”

Simon Fiquet, Managing Director, Global Series Markets, Brand Expedia, said: “At Expedia, our mission is to help people go places because we believe that travel is a force for good, connecting us culturally, emotionally, physically and opening our eyes, minds and hearts to the real world. Standard Chartered, as a premium bank across Asia Pacific markets, has a fantastic base of clients with a strong interest in travel. With this global collaboration, we see great synergy in leveraging our collective strengths to bring more choices and savings to travellers to help them travel better, travel more.”

Travel for leisure and business continues to grow worldwide. Over the past two decades, the number of international travel departures across the globe has more than doubled from around 600 million to 1.3 billion, according to The World Bank2.
