Grab now expands its Advance Booking feature, which allows users to book a ride to any destination in Klang Valley and Penang—all except rides from airports. Previously, the feature was only available for booking a ride to KLIA 1 and KLIA 2.
To use Advance Booking, simply tap the “Make an Advance Booking” button in the car section of the Grab app. The feature is available for JustGrab, GrabCar Plus, 6-Seater, Premium, and Exec bookings. You can schedule your ride up to 31 days in advance or a minimum of two hours before pickup.
It does come with a scheduling fee now, unlike before. It ranges from RM12 for a JustGrab to RM18 for Premium. You can still cancel your booking, although you may get a full refund up to an hour before the scheduled pickup time. If it’s within the last hour, though, cancellations do not come free either.
