Available for Traveloka Transport, Hotel, Xperience and Eats products, the Traveloka Clean Partners campaign offers an end-to-end and comprehensive portfolio, providing convenience and peace of mind for users who want to travel & do lifestyle activities in this New Normal era.

During this transition phase, collaborative efforts from all parties that result in innovative solutions are greatly needed, not only to boost the industry’s recovery but also to curb the COVID-19 spread in Indonesia.”

During the large-scale social restriction (PSBB) in June, Traveloka’s internal data shows that public’s confidence level to start their travel and out-of-home activities have increased by 16%, from 29% to 45%. Since the Traveloka Clean Partners campaign is available on Traveloka platform, the data also showed a significant increment of 300% for search on Traveloka products with the “Clean” label. Overall, Traveloka also recorded an increment of more than twofold for products with the “Clean” label that have been available since June, which are Hotel, Transport (Airport Transfer and Car Rental), as well as Xperience.

With the spirit of togetherness, we hope that Traveloka Clean Partners will be able to help thousands of partners to keep running their business amidst this challenging circumstance,” said Christian.

To provide an extra layer of protection, Traveloka also introduces Traveloka CleanTrip Plus, enabling users to get extra hygiene services, such as car shield, antiseptic wipes, and other in-car hygiene kits. 

Meanwhile, Traveloka CleanFlight label is designed for airlines who have carried our cabin disinfection and thorough checking, including travel requirement documents, such as health statements.
