Problem Statement

Hotel listings on AirAsia MOVE were experiencing significant issues with content consistency and localization. A major problem emerged when it was discovered that key information was missing on non-English hotel detail pages. This lack of content completeness impacted user engagement and trust, leading to high drop-off rates on essential booking pages and resulting in an estimated revenue loss of over $1 million annually. The challenge was to address these content issues holistically, creating a more reliable and user-friendly experience.

Objectives

  • Ensure that hotel content is fully populated and localised across all supported languages to cater to a diverse user base.

  • Streamline the information architecture to make essential hotel information more accessible and intuitive.

  • Establish a robust content quality scoring system to maintain high standards and facilitate ongoing improvements.
