airasia ride, the e-hailing service operated by Capital A (previously known as AirAsia) launched Community Drivers on its platform yesterday, a new feature that caters to different passenger needs. The feature kicks off with a LadiesONLY Driver community, with another four categories to be added in the near future.

As the name would suggest, the LadiesONLY Driver community gives female passengers the option to ride with lady drivers and vice versa for a more comfortable ride. Users can now book a LadiesONLY ride by selecting the ‘Ride’ option on the airasia Super App
