Jayrideโs global rollout is now in its final stages with the company announcing it has launched transport services at more than 130 airports throughout China, Russia and six other countries. The latest expansion means Jayride now offers fixed-price airport transfers at over 1500 airports in 69 countries through partnerships with over 3000 transport companies.
According to Rod Bishop, managing director of Jayride, the companyโs arrival in China, which the International Air Transport Association (IATA) predicts will overtake the US as the worldโs largest aviation market by 2024, is especially significant. โChina is the worldโs most dynamic aviation market with extremely strong business and tourism fundamentals. We are now live in 38 Chinese airports, including Beijing and Shanghai, both in the worldโs top ten for passenger volume and aim to tap into the potential this vast market offers for our business,โ he said.
Chinese transport companies have embraced the platform well. โWeโve had a great response and are working with 26 local airport transfer operators, which gives us really good coverage,โ he added.
