Immediate Connectivity at Destination 

Staying connected upon arrival at a new destination is essential for today’s travelers. To address this need, Flexways now offers 1 GB of free mobile data, which can be activated after confirming the vehicle rental. 

This solution ensures passengers have connectivity from the moment they arrive, making it easier to navigate, communicate, and access relevant information throughout their trip. 

Free Guide Tour: Tailor-Made Itineraries 

The company also provides each passenger with a personalized itinerary tailored to the destination and travel dates. 

The free guide tour features key tourist attractions, recommended activities, and relevant cultural events during the stay, becoming a practical, free and useful tool to start enjoying the destination even before arrival. 

Suggested Accommodations for Better Planning 

Complementing the other services, passengers receive a guide to pre-selected accommodation, tailored to the destination and travel period.

This selection, curated by the Flexways team, is presented clearly and immediately once the booking is confirmed, helping travelers make decisions and plan their trips. 

“Our goal is to enhance the customer journey even before it begins through services that deliver real value to travelers,” said Gabriel Madero, CEO of Flexways, in a Jan. 20 news release. 

With this launch, the company strengthens its user-centric approach, investing in services that deliver real value to travelers.
