SIA customers can book Grab rides through SIA's mobile app.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Grab partnered up to integrate their mobile apps and enhance their customers' travel services.

According to a press release, SIA customers will be able to book Grab rides through SIA's mobile app. The first 5,000 customers will receive GrabPay credits worth $10 for bookings made through the SIA mobile app.

KrisFlyer and GrabRewards users will also receive additional benefits under the partnership. GrabRewards users will have the option to convert their GrabRewards points into KrisFlyer miles.

SIA senior vice president sales and marketing Campbell Wilson said, "We are thrilled to bring more convenience to our customers on the ground and in the air through our new partnership with Grab, while also offering KrisFlyer and GrabRewards members the opportunity to convert points to miles and redeem them for award flights or flight upgrades. We are constantly seeking to enhance our SingaporeAir mobile app and KrisFlyer programme to ensure that we provide more benefits to our customers."

The move will happen across airports in six countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
