JAKARTA - PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) and PT Blue Bird Tbk (BIRD) continue the collaboration that allows ordering Bluebird taxis to be integrated into the KAI Access application. Through this collaboration, people who order train tickets through the KAI Access application can add a Bluebird taxi service (in the Service option menu) before making a payment.
This launch is a continuation of the collaboration between KAI and Bluebird which includes the First Mile, which is pick-up transportation from the initial location to the departure station. Previously on September 16, 2020, KAI and Bluebird had introduced the Last Mile service or transportation from the arrival station to the destination location.
This service can only be done for long-distance train services. Ordering First Mile and Last Mile services on the KAI Access Application can be done simultaneously with booking train tickets, or separately from booking train tickets. Ordering additional taxi services, which is done together with train tickets, is made on the Booking Details page, then select additional taxi services through the “Taxi” menu. If it is done separately from booking train tickets, then first select the train ticket booking code to which First Mile and Last Mile services will be added, then on the Ticket Details page select the "service" menu and then select the "Taxi" menu.
In this collaboration, KAI Access users can enjoy the Fixed Price feature from Bluebird which is able to maximize comfort while traveling. The Fixed Price feature provides users with a fixed price scheme regardless of the uncertain situation on the roads, including traffic jams, thus providing extra peace of mind from the first or last mile journey to the destination.
Currently, the First Mile and Last Mile services can be used for departure and arrival stations, namely Gambir, Pasar Senen, Bandung, Semarang Tawang, Semarang Poncol, Yogyakarta, Surabaya Gubeng and Surabaya Pasar Turi. In the future, the number of serving stations will be added gradually. (LM)
