APEX Insight: Grab-and-go dining at the airport is getting a little easier thanks to a partnership between food ordering platform Grab and Collinson, the loyalty company behind the Priority Pass lounge program.

The deal, announced at this week’s Future Travel Experience Global conference in Las Vegas, includes a significant financial investment by Collinson in the Grab operation.
