Ola Mobility Expands to Chennai Airport, Marking Presence at 22 Airports Nationwide
Ola Mobility, India’s leading ride-hailing platform, has expanded its services to Chennai International Airport, as part of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Airports Authority of India (AAI). The newly established Ola Zone at Chennai International Airport will provide pickups for travellers and offer booking assistance, aiming to enhance service efficiency and reduce wait times.
Hemant Bakshi, CEO of Ola Mobility, expressed excitement about this expansion, stating, “In alignment with our vision to enhance the airport ride experience, we are thrilled to introduce our services at Chennai International Airport. Since our presence in 6 airports until 2022, we are now operational in 22 leading airports across the country.”
In addition to facilitating smoother transactions for travellers, Ola has introduced a cashless checkout system at Chennai International Airport, benefiting drivers by eliminating payment at entry/exits and optimizing the overall experience. Furthermore, all charges for travellers will be consolidated into a single bill for convenience, while drivers will enjoy dedicated, cost-free parking, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing associated costs.
Since its establishment in 2011, Ola has expanded its operations to serve 200 cities with over 1 million driver partners. The company recently launched its e-bike service in Delhi and Hyderabad, with plans for further expansion in Bangalore following a successful pilot. Additionally, Ola’s India Mobility Business achieved positive EBITDA in FY23, reflecting its commitment to nationwide electrification and serving a billion Indians, marking a significant milestone in the Indian internet industry.
