阿拉伯航空今天宣布，它将开始接受与阿联酋第一批完全集成的数字银行Al Maryah社区银行（Mbank）合作使用加密货币进行飞行预订。

This collaboration makes Air Arabia the first airline in the region to offer stablecoin-based payments, underscoring the carrier’s commitment to offering innovative digital solutions to its customer base.

这项合作使阿拉伯航空成为该地区第一个提供基于Stablecoin的付款的航空公司，强调了该航空公司致力于为其客户提供创新的数字解决方案的承诺。

The partnership will see the introduction of AE Coin, the UAE’s first AED-backed stablecoin, as a preferred payment mode for booking flights on Air Arabia’s network.

合作伙伴关系将介绍AE Coin，Ae Coin是阿联酋的首个AED支持的Stablecoin，作为在阿拉伯网络上预订航班的首选支付模式。

Air Arabia customers can fund their AEC Wallet through the AEC Wallet App and select the e-wallet at checkout when booking on Air Arabia’s website, presenting a new convenient and secure payment alternative to travellers.

Arabia Arabia客户可以通过AEC Wallet应用程序为其AEC钱包提供资金，并在Arabia的网站上预订时在结帐时选择E-Wallet，并为旅行者提供新的方便且安全的付款替代方案。

“We are pleased to partner with Mbank to introduce AE Coin as a new and preferred payment option for our customers. At Air Arabia, we are committed to advancing digitalization across our operations, and this partnership showcases our dedication to enhancing the customer experience through technology,” said Adel Al Ali, group CEO of Air Arabia.

“我们很高兴与Mbank合作，将AE硬币作为新的和优先的付款方式引入我们的客户。在阿拉伯航空，我们致力于在运营中推进数字化，这种合作伙伴关系展示了我们通过技术增强客户体验的奉献精神，”阿拉伯航空公司首席执行官Adel Al Ali说。

“The newly introduced payment option through AEC Wallet from Mbank reflects our ongoing efforts to adopt smart solutions that bring greater value, choice and flexibility to our growing customer base.”

“通过Mbank的AEC钱包，新引入的付款方式反映了我们正在进行的努力，为采用智能解决方案带来了更大的价值，选择和灵活性，为我们不断增长的客户群带来了。”

Earlier this year, Air Arabia announced the integration of a new self-service bag drop system at its hub in Sharjah, as part of its efforts to introduce new travel technology solutions.

今年早些时候，阿拉伯航空宣布在其位于沙迦的枢纽将新的自助袋掉落系统整合在一起，这是其引入新的旅行技术解决方案的努力的一部分。

The partnership also aligns with the UAE’s vision of a digital-first economy, with the integration of AE Coin in handling payments for flight bookings kicking off a new chapter in Air Arabia’s efforts to expand its innovative offerings.

该合作伙伴关系还与阿联酋关于数字优先经济的愿景保持一致，与AE硬币的整合在处理飞行预订的付款中，在阿拉伯航空公司为扩展其创新产品的努力中启动了新的篇章。

For his part, Mohammed Wassim Khayata, CEO of Mbank, said Air Arabia’s strong reputation as a leading low-cost carrier operator in the Mena region, catering to a diverse customer segment, aligns perfectly with the bank’s mission to provide accessible, secure and affordable digital banking solutions to the community.

Mbank首席执行官Mohammed Wassim Khayata表示，Arabia Arabia作为MENA地区领先的低成本承运人运营商的良好声誉，迎合了多元化的客户领域，与该银行的使命完全相符，该使命符合该银行为社区提供可访问，可访问，安全和负担得起的数字银行解决方案。

“Through this partnership, we are not only enhancing the booking process for Air Arabia’s passengers but also contributing to the UAE’s broader goal of creating a truly inclusive, digitally empowered financial ecosystem in line with the country’s vision,” he added.

他补充说：“通过这种合作伙伴关系，我们不仅在增强阿拉伯航空的乘客的预订过程，而且还为阿联酋的更广泛的目标做出了与该国愿景相一致的真正包容性，数字授权的金融生态系统的更广泛目标。”

Meanwhile, Ramez Rafeek, general manager of AED Stablecoin, said this partnership with Air Arabia is a key milestone for AE Coin as it brings digital currency closer to everyday consumers.

“With this integration, Air Arabia passengers can now select the AEC Wallet at checkout when booking on Air Arabia’s website, presenting a new convenient and preferred payment alternative to travellers, and allowing for a smooth cashless experience that aligns with the growing digital economy.

“通过这种整合，阿拉伯航空的乘客现在可以在Arabia的网站上预订时在结帐时选择AEC钱包，并提供新的方便且首选的旅行者替代品，并允许具有与日益增长的数字经济相吻合的平稳的无现金体验。

“Air Arabia’s leadership in adopting cutting-edge digital payment solutions within the aviation industry is an exciting development that will set the stage for wider adoption of digital currencies in the region.”
