REAL-TIME TRAVEL IN ACTION2
The travel industry is battling for mindshare. Connected customers have more choices, access and control than ever. Loyalty hangs in the balance. So do opportunities to grow the business and adapt to market changes as the industry moves to a new generation of travelers.
Leaders know how important it is to deliver made-just-for-me experiences that serve and delight. Owning the customer demands personalization and seamless digital experiences at every phase of the travel journey, no exceptions. Relying on stitched-together digital point solutions, the industry has struggled to find one consistent, comprehensive and open solution to do this. One that is available today, not in the future. Until now.

Welcome to Family Fun ResortsROOM 11 is ready and right this way!
The Garcias are set to leave today but traffic is bad. An API links Uber to an event calendar, allowing Uber to advise the Garcia’s to leave for the airport earlier than planned.
Resort senses the Garcias arrival through indoor positioning technology. Recommendations engine provides the family with personalized options for entertainment.
Using indoor positioning technology the application knows that the family has arrived and automatically checks them in, based on the family’s set preferences. The family sets a pin that will unlock their hotel room door.
Indoor positioning technology helps calculate time to gate. The exact gate notification is originated from airport’s APIs.
The app provides navigation instructions to the fastest and closest security line and restaurant leveraging indoor positioning technology. This same technology enables the Garcias to receive special offers.
Folks, get ready! We need to leave early.
Carlos
