Hyatt Rosemont Installs FlyteBoard Displays
"We installed FlyteBoard because it gives our guests greater confidence in their travel arrangements," says Christian Jacoby, Hyatt Rosemont's director of sales. "It is a valuable amenity that helps us gain more guest wallet share. When guests check the lobby FlyteBoard and see their flight is delayed, they usually head to our outlets to relax in comfort until their new departure time."
The Hyatt Rosemont FlyteBoard shows departure times for airlines at Chicago O'Hare International Airport and is wall-mounted adjacent to the front desk for guest convenience at checkout.
FlyteBoard, developed by Flyte Systems, is a wall, floor or ceiling mounted high-definition, flat panel screen which properties install in public areas to provide guests with 'glance-and-go' convenience for more accurate travel planning. Flyte Systems posts real-time airline flight arrival and departure information, not FAA-regulated scheduled departure times that do not list delays caused by:
- Air Traffic Control
- Aircraft maintenance
- Crew availability
- Weather
"Virtually all our guests fly in and out of O'Hare so it makes perfect sense to provide live airline information services," says Jacoby. "Flyte Systems' airline information comes to the property over our existing high-speed Internet connection and the companyÃ.‚¬s installation and support are excellent. It is a good investment."
FlyteSystems products are configurable to display information from one or multiple airports.
