Singapore Airlines (SIA) recently launched a beta chatbot, as it expands digital servicing channels for customers. The bot, named Kris, will initially be available on the SIA global Facebook page, and will later be made available on singaporeair.com.
Customers who visit the SIA Facebook page and reach out to the Airline via Facebook Messenger will be able to chat privately with Kris and receive assistance for pre-flight-related queries. As a beta bot, Kris will be in constant learning mode and its capabilities will develop over time. The bot is currently trained to address queries in English related to baggage, check-in, online booking, as well as traveling with infants and children.
Based on historical data, the beta bot has been trained to address the most frequent queries customers search for on SIA’s website or reach out to reservations offices for. Using variations of actual questions received from customers, Kris’ responses have been fine-tuned through rounds of iterations using artificial intelligence, with the aim of training the bot to provide conversational replies that can meet the needs of customers promptly and efficiently. SIA has been progressively enhancing its digital capabilities and the development of Kris was led by an in-house team.
