Swiggy’s CREW Forays into Travel; Builds India’s First Always-On Travel Concierge App from Discovery to Destination and Beyond
Swiggy’s CREW has now evolved into a full-fledged personal travel concierge, positioning itself as India’s first always-on travel companion that goes beyond just booking.
What CREW Offers
- End-to-End Travel Planning: Flights, hotels, cabs, visas, forex, ticketing, reservations, curated experiences.
- Exclusive Rates: Member-only hotel pricing through partner networks.
- Always-On Concierge: 24/7 support across time zones, with human concierges backed by AI.
- Local Expertise: Insider recommendations and partner networks at the city level, instead of generic listings.
- On-Trip Assistance: Real-time help with itinerary changes, reservations, and everyday needs while abroad.
Why It’s Different
Most online travel platforms stop at booking. CREW continues through the journey — anticipating needs, solving problems, and offering personalized support. It’s designed to feel like a trusted contact who knows your preferences and adapts as plans change.
