According to Hospitality.net, JANUS Displays announced today the addition of a boarding pass feature to the company's interactive touch screens. The new feature allows access to up-to-date travel information via an interactive display, from a hotel lobby, business center or conference area.
The JANUS Concierge board provides guests with entry to a variety of items such as upcoming events, local restaurant listings and national weather forecasts. The boarding pass feature is the latest application added to the Concierge Board.
The boarding pass feature allows guests access to flight check-in and boarding pass printing at the touch of a fingertip. The display also enables visitors to view the status of their flight, including delays and/or cancellations, by providing the flight arrival and departure information.
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)-compliant process creates a system that is both easy to use and protective of personal information.
The knowledge gained from the new system will allow guests to make decisions that will positively affect an establishment, according to JANUS. When flight delays or cancellations occur, guests are more likely to remain in their current surroundings, resulting in increased RevPAR for properties.
