British Airways launched its new British Airways BOTler, a personal Facebook Messenger BOT that serves customers with a ‘best of the best’ guide to travelling to London this winter.
In highlighting numerous reasons to visit the UK capital this winter season, the British Airways BOTler will offer live updates on exclusive deals and personalised recommendations on top attractions and experiences tailored for individual users. Designed to add value to UAE residents flying to London in December, the British Airways BOTler is part of ‘London for Less’ – the airline’s special fare-led, global winter campaign.
Exclusive British Airways BOTler deals include luxury for less stays at the Rosewood London, which is offering 30 percent discount on hotel bookings during a fixed travel period. Passengers presenting their boarding passes also receive up to 60 percent off at Biscester Village and a VIP Pass and discounts at Westfield London.
