Doubletree San Francisco Airport Enhances Guest Satisfaction with Real-Time Flight Info, Boarding Pass Printing

The Doubletree Hotel San Francisco Airport has installed Flyte Systems' FlyteBoard and FlytePass travel service solutions. Flyte Systems is a provider of airport travel information displays and digital signage content for hospitality, digital signage, convention centers and related businesses.

FlyteBoard is a high-definition, flat panel screen for lobbies, restaurants, bars and other public areas that display flight information for one or more airports along with weather updates and local traffic information. FlytePass combines a touch screen flight information kiosk with secure boarding pass printing.

"The FlyteBoard and FlytePass systems are essential guest service additions for travelers at our busy airport property," says Ahmed Mahrous, general manager of the Doubletree Hotel San Francisco Airport (SFO). "We cater to guests who travel by air, various airline crews, and distressed airline passengers. Flyte Systems' real-time airline information is a service valued by guests because it allows them to make better travel decisions based on accurate SFO flight information."

Flyte Systems is a full service flight information display solution that provides real-time airline flight information. The Doubletree Hotel San Francisco Airport is a 388-room property 10 minutes south of San Francisco International Airport.

"Guests rely on our property's boarding pass printing to simplify their travel plans," says Mahrous. The property's front office team also monitors the FlyteBoard in the lobby for flight delays and cancellations to better estimate the number of distressed passengers to expect. "When our team knows how many distressed guests are coming, it enables them to set the most efficient staffing levels at the desk and in housekeeping," says Mahrous.
