Ola Mobility, India’s largest ride-hailing platform, today announced the launch of its services at Chennai International Airport (MAA), spanning across all terminals. This strategic expansion is part of the MOU signed between Airports Authority of India (AAI) and OLA cabs and marks Ola’s presence at 22 airports.
The Ola Zone at Chennai International Airport will be dedicated towards smooth pickups for travelers. Additionally, booking assistance will also be available at the zone to guide travelers enabling faster services and reduced wait times. Furthermore, the drivers will also benefit from a cashless checkout system, which eliminates the payment at entry/exits, for an improved experience for both travelers and drivers. For travelers, all charges will be included in a single bill, ensuring convenience. Drivers will be offered dedicated, cost-free parking (MLCP), optimizing operational efficiency, and reducing associated costs.
Hemant Bakshi, CEO, Ola Mobility said, “In alignment with our vision to enhance the airport ride experience, we are thrilled to introduce our services at Chennai International Airport. This expansion reiterates our dedication to building a nationwide network of convenient airport transportation services. Since our presence in 6 airports until 2022, we are now operational in 22 leading airports across the country. This growth will propel us forward strongly in our mission to serve 1 billion Indians with our mobility and consumer solutions.”
Having commenced services in 2011, Ola has the largest ride-hailing network in India with operations in 200 cities and more than 1 million driver partners on the platform. Recently, Ola announced the launch of its e-Bike service in Delhi and Hyderabad, while the company will expand and increase deployment of e-Bikes in Bangalore following a massive pilot success. In line with the company’s vision and growth strategy of serving 1 Billion Indians and nationwide penetration with electrification. Ola recently announced that its India Mobility Business has turned EBITDA positive in FY 23, one of the few Indian internet companies to achieve this feat.
