Mayflower launches its comprehensive travel portal



In tandem with the global trend towards embracing the digital lifestyle, Malaysia’s leading total travel specialist, Mayflower Group, a unit of Warisan TC Holdings Berhad, officially launched its online platform called Mayflower.com.my today.

Mayflower.com.my is set to be Southeast Asia’s most powerful and comprehensive travel portal by leveraging on Mayflower Holiday’s extensive global tourist-industry network, which has been built over five decades. Developed to be user-friendly yet feature-packed with great deals and offers, this home-grown online portal allows users to book air tickets, accommodations, and transportation as well as bundle packages online.

Mayflower.com.my is also unique in the way that it offers professional travel agents and tour operators the capability of securing the best deals while making travel arrangements for their clients.

The launch of Mayflower.com.my was officiated by Mr. Tan Keng Meng; Chief Executive Officer of Warisan TC Holdings Berhad; alongside Mr. Chin Ten Hoy, Chief Executive Officer of Mayflower Group and Mr. Cheah Kwan Cheong, Chief Technology Officer of Mayflower.

At the launch event, Mr. Chin said, “Since ‘Go Live’ in June 2017, Mayflower.com.my has enjoyed a rapidly increasing following. We started by offering only flight tickets and accommodations. We then expanded our services to include ground packages, entrance tickets, and tour activities."

“Currently, Mayflower.com.my features access to over eighty airlines, connecting to over 5,000 destinations worldwide; 380,000 hotels; as well as more than 2,000 holiday packages across the globe.”

“Moving forward, Mayflower.com.my will expand its offerings further by including airport transfer, cruises and rail passes. We will also continue to offer more special interest packages such as golf and dive vacations.”

“In addition, we will also be rolling out Mayflower mobile application to enhance our customers' overall experience. This app will allow customers to manage their travel bookings ‘under one roof’, eliminating the hassle of engaging with multiple platforms, online or offline” he explained.

“All in all, the global tourism industry continues to be disrupted by new innovations utilising the Internet and mobile telecommunications technologies. Mayflower Holidays’ strategic pivot towards the digital platform is both timely and practical, given our long established presence in this industry as well as our extensive network of tour operators, agents and business partners across the globe.” Chin concluded.
