The Iroquois Makes Real-Time Flight Info Available to Guests
NEW YORK, NY, December 20, 2006. With the recent installation of AIRS Lobby, The Iroquois New York becomes the first Manhattan hotel whose guests can access real-time arrival and departure flight information directly from JFK, LaGuardia and Newark Airports. As a result, travelers can retrieve the latest air travel updates more accurately and in less time than calling for the information.
AIRS is a real-time system for displaying flight information just as it is seen on airport monitors. Using high-speed internet connections, combined with a touch screen, AIRS automatically updates airline arrivals, departures, flight numbers, flight status, times, gate locations and other details. With AIRS, travelers can find out about flight delays or changes before they arrive at the airport, saving them time and enabling them to adjust their schedule if necessary.
"It is our goal to provide our guests with an unforgettable experience while they stay in New York for business or leisure and the AIRS system helps us achieve that goal," said Paul Celnik, General Manager of the Iroquois. "We chose AIRS for both its user-friendly service and its ability to provide traveling guests with instant answers to their flight questions."
