I wrote yesterday about a new Klook Amex Offer that can save you up to 20% on activities booked through the site.
In the comments, Kevin shared an extremely interesting piece of information. Activities aren’t the only travel-related things you can book through Klook. You can also book flights, car rentals, trains, airport transfers and more.
You can access the Klook travel portal here. As you can see, the following types of travel are bookable through the site:
- Trains
- Rail passes
- Car rentals
- Airport transfers
- Airport trains & buses
- Flights
In Kevin’s comment, he shared the following:
Was able to get a one-way United flight in January for $300 cheaper on Klook vs. United directly, booked into regular economy, and stacked the Amex offer with Klook promo code ‘TRAVELLOVER’ for an additional $50 off the booking.
Amex offer posted yesterday. Only thing with flight bookings is that it’s not instant ticketing. It took about 6 hours (and lots of nail biting) but it came through ticketed and with all the details to easily port into the United app and handle seats, etc.
Being able to use a promo code to deduct $50 from the cost of a flight is awesome; being able to then stack the Amex Offer for an additional $80 is even better.
It was also fantastic that he confirmed that the Amex Offer statement credit has already posted. When I first started reading his comment, I was dubious about whether a flight booking would be processed as a Klook purchase rather than one processed by the airline itself. However, it clearly does work to trigger the Amex Offer which is great news as that makes it much easier to hit the $400 spending threshold for the offer.
I’m curious if flight (and other non-activity) bookings are also eligible for rewards after clicking through from a shopping portal. Considering the sometimes generous cashback rates available through portals, a case could be made that it’s worth booking flights via Klook despite the potential extra layer of complexity involved in the event of irregular operations on your day of travel.
