On the Road: Websites and Apps for Travel Loading the Right Apps • Lets you get the most out of your vacation • Helps you avoid missing important sites • Eliminates confusion while travelling • Keeps you connected to home Tips for loading apps O Check the Google Play Store for Android apps and the Apple app store for iPhone and iPad apps. Some apps also have versions for Windows phones but there are far fewer. O You will need an Apple and/or Google id. O Make sure the app is available for your version of iOS or Android. O Some apps are only available on the company’s website. O Some apps have a corresponding website, others only have an app. O Unless otherwise noted, all apps are for Android & iOS. Accommodations Hotel Tonight app only O Biggest name in last-minute bookings in the US. App focuses exclusively on day-of bookings, although you can extend your stay for multiple nights at some hotels. O Hotels in North America & Western Europe. Rooms are offered at discounts up to 70% and categorized by tier (basic, solid, charming, hip, luxe). You can see ratings and user photos before choosing a hotel. Booking takes just a few taps. O Hotel Tonight is the best choice if you want to quickly book a quality room. It has fewer options than in other apps, but choices are good and offered at steep discounts. O ‘Why we like it’ section describes why it’s a good pick. O No guarantee on a specific room or bed type until check in. O Deals available at noon local time. O Need to book for someone else? Just add a guest name, and select it when you book. Last Minute Travel website & app O Download from website, not app store. O Deals for more than 16,000 hotels in 2,500 major cities. O Unlike Hotel Tonight, can book ahead of time. Up to 65% savings. O Culls TripAdvisor info, so each listing includes user-generated star ratings, reviews, property descriptions, and photos. O Many of the rooms it lists aren’t available to book via the hotel’s website, so travelers will have a greater selection—and save time— by launching this app instead of conducting individual searches. O Features “undercover” hotels. O Can sort by price, recommended, hotel name, distance from current location, Trip Advisor or star rating to book. Jetsetter Now iOS app only & website O Web site known as a curator of travel which promotes hotels and destinations that the JS team has investigated themselves to make sure they're top- notch. Any hotels chosen will definitely be chic. O Look at Flash Sales for best deals. O Properties are categorized by location as well as the collection they fit into - Royal, Posh, or Brilliant. O Look at “What We Love," "What To Know," and The Lowdown sections for insider information. O Full website also available but need app for last minute deals. O The app’s strengths: panoramic photos and insights from Jetsetter’s team of expert correspondents. One-of-a kind Accommodations websites & apps O Features: O Search for available properties by destination O Both apps/sites feature pictures of properties O Peruse amenities, descriptions, nearby airports, local attractions and more O Read reviews from previous guests O Contact the property owner or manager O Get a quote for your travel dates O AirBnB O Thousands of places to stay in over 34,000 cities O Includes last-minutes accommodations anywhere in the world O Skews a little younger, more shared accommodations & apartments O Home Away & VRBO For travelers O More than 1 million property listings in 171 countries O Skewed a little more to rental properties. Hipmunk: Flights & Hotels website & app O Offers last minute hotel deals. Can also book flights & get information. O App offers three options on the main screen: Search Flights, Search Hotels, & Discover. Discover lets you combine flight & hotel info. O Discounts range from 10-40%. O Hipmunk gives you more options than Hotel Tonight but plenty of controls to help narrow them down. O Download the mobile app from the main website or get it via one of the app stores. O Although it’s a flight and hotel aggregation search app it’s unique in that it includes non-traditional lodging such as listings from Airbnb and HomeAway in its search results. Major Travel Sites Booking.com O Booking.com’s Tonight app also provides lots of options but at smaller discounts (~10%) than Hipmunk does. O Since both HotelTonight and Jetsetter have more curated content, results are very limited. O Once you click on a hotel, it will list all available rooms, hotel facilities and policies, and other pertinent information. O If you want a plethora of options that you can filter by price, location, facilities, etc, this is a great option. O When you book a hotel, you can download a free travel guide to use offline. Includes places to eat, sites, shopping, etc. O If you're less interested in how hip the hotel is, the big booking agencies will give you loads of results with more budget options. Hotels.com , Booking.com , Expedia , and Priceline all have mobile apps for travelers on-the-go. Restaurants & Eating Out Restaurants & Eating Out Yelp - website & app User restaurant reviews ChowHound.com - website Food forums in U.S. & major world cities OpenTable – website & app Book a table, read reviews U.S. only Foodspotting website & app O Reviews dishes, not restaurants.

  • Winning the Engagement War: Creating the Hotel of the Future with Ancillaries

    Winning the Engagement War: Creating the Hotel of the Future with Ancillaries

    WINNING THE ENGAGEMENT WAR: CREATING THE HOTEL OF THE FUTURE WITH ANCILLARIES Presented by + Winning the Engagement War: SKIFT REPORT 2018 2 Creating the Hotel of the Future With Ancillaries EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Hotel ancillaries, often known to travelers and travel businesses as the extra items — like rental cars, hotel room upgrades, spa visits, food delivery, and tours — that are bundled along with their rooms, already play an essential role in the sector’s merchandising, marketing, and revenue considerations. But even though ancillaries have always been an effective strategy to boost sales, they are no longer seen by hotel executives as a mere supplement to other travel products. Today, they are increasingly the main event. Following the lead of the airline industry, which in 2017 earned an estimated $82 billion worldwide from sales of ancillary products, hotel executives are realizing that they are no longer simply selling access to just rooms and beds. Instead, they are now travel gatekeepers and tastemakers, selling access to a universe of related experiences connected to dining, entertainment, spas, tours and activities, retail, local services, and more. Taking this more expansive view of hospitality offers hotel businesses a variety of business benefits, including increased revenue, a more detailed understanding of the wants and needs of their customers, and an ability to drive more repeat business and create loyal customers. But in order to capitalize on this vision, hotels will need adjust their current ancillary approach. This will involve a renewed focus on better personalizing the types of ancillary offers they promote to customers, using what they know about guests to deliver more meaningful bundles of products that align with customer needs.

    21 Century Travel Using Websites, Mobile and Wearable Technology Devices

    Athens Journal of Tourism - Volume 2, Issue 2 – Pages 105-116 21 Century Travel using Websites, Mobile and Wearable Technology Devices By Michael Conyette This paper begins with an account of how travel has changed primarily between the 20th and 21st century from the dominant role that travel agents played in the past to the travel functions that mobile and wearable technology devices perform in this century. It also discusses the many technological changes that prepared the path for mobile and wearable technology devices, and concludes with examples of how wearables and augmented reality experiences are being used by travel organizations and museums. Wearable computing is a natural evolution of the smartphone technology that has become so prevalent and indispensable. Samsung’s Galaxy Gear, Apple’s Watch, Microsoft’s HoloLens, Epson’s Moverio and others will vie for market share in the wearable technology space. Wearable tech devices have the power to transform the management of destination attractions in terms of information provision and the experience of a venue or destination. Examples of this are provided herein. Keywords: Mobile devices, Museum, Smart Glasses, Travel website, Wearable technology Introduction Paradigm shifts in business operations instigated by the Internet two decades ago are now being further compounded via the prevalence of mobile devices and the emerging array of powerful wearable technology devices so that tourism venues need to realign their business practices and models to remain competitive and avoid being sidelined by advancing technology. Wearable tech devices are expected to change the fundamentals of human machine interaction. The paper firstly outlines the role of travel agents followed by changes in travel and technology that have enabled the adoption of wearables.

Unveiled at the conference was a joint study issued by the MMA and Neustar, Inc. entitled, “Marketers Guide to Mobile and Data.” The research was gathered from a survey of 400 companies across the consumer product and service categories. Questions focused on how marketers perceive mobile, the impact achieved with mobile tactics, as well as the strategic advantage of data. The study revealed that a staggering 85 percent of marketers believe that mobile is a gateway to new markets and audiences. Additionally, 80 percent of respondents cited that mobile is not only transformational for their companies, but also strategic for their careers to stay on the cutting edge of emerging trends and technology. The survey identified that data offers significant value when paired with mobile as 61 percent of companies plan to invest more in data capabilities over the next year. After reviewing the insights and findings from the “Marketers Guide to Mobile and Data,” it is clear that we are experiencing a seismic shift in the industry when it comes to the attitudes and priorities of marketers embracing mobile. Only a few years ago, many brands were still asking “why mobile” but now senior executives realize that the future health of their businesses is linked to mobile’s role as a marketing vehicle.

    MOBILE IN TRAVEL REPORT SERIES 2016–2017 MOBILE IN TRAVEL REPORT SERIES 2016–2017 AUTHORS David Benady Alex Hadwick Head of Reasearch, EyeforTravel www.eyefortravel.com 1 WELCOME MOBILE IN TRAVEL REPORT SERIES 2016–2017 WELCOME Welcome to our Mobile in Travel Report Series and thank you for choosing EyeforTravel’s research. Mobile technology is the key disruptive influence in the travel industry. The possibilities it affords and the demands it is creating are challenging every aspect of the travel journey. There is now an expectation for instantaneous information that can be accessed by consumers whenever they desire it through the mobile web and apps. In order to deliver this experience travel brands need to conduct an enormous amount of work behind the scenes. Building, optimizing and maintaining a mobile strategy can quickly become a costly exercise. However, few, if any, brands can operate without mobile web or native apps if they do want to win the customer’s booking. The Mobile in Travel Report Series seeks to give travel brands all the tools they need to succeed in this sphere, from understanding consumer trends to the nuts bolts of app construction. This report series will allow you to comprehensively understand mobile in travel through: The current state of the m-commerce in travel. Mobile search and purchase behaviors. A complete understanding of mobile web and native apps and their inherent advantages. Answering whether mobile web or native apps are more important. Investment strategies. Mobile website construction. The cost of app development and how to build successful apps. Driving app downloads and keeping apps on users’ phones.

From the navigation-oriented Waze to gas-price bargain hunter Gas Buddy, the best of these apps incorporate the wisdom of like-minded travelers with updates about lurking speed traps, ever-changing fuel costs, and ratings of the hotel staff or restaurant just off the exit.

    Article the Gift That Keeps on Giving: Google, Ingress, and the Gift Of

    The Gift that Keeps on Giving: Article Google, Ingress, and the Gift of Surveillance Nathan Hulsey Joshua Reeves North Carolina State University, US. University of Memphis, US. [email protected] [email protected] Abstract This article analyses Ingress, Google’s new massively multiplayer online game, as indicative of an emergent economy that calls for the datafication of one’s mobile life in exchange for the gift of play. From this perspective, Ingress is simply suggestive of broader sociocultural transformations in which citizens must submit to pervasive surveillance in order to participate in contemporary economic and political life. Turning to Roberto Esposito’s recent work on gift-giving and communal exchange, we explain how Google “immunizes” itself from its consumer community by continuously collecting that community’s gift of surveillance while structuring its own conditions of reciprocity. Introduction “The world around you is not what it seems”—or so the advertisers of Google’s new massively multiplayer online game (MMO), Ingress, would like you to think. Released in November 2012, Ingress is a cutting-edge game that uses players’ real-time geographic coordinates and social networking platforms to enable players to cooperatively contain a fictional invasion of digital “alien matter.” On the surface, Ingress is simply a hot new game that calls on players to use social media and GPS-enabled mobile devices to coordinate their movements across virtually layered hybrid spaces. Yet as many journalists, activists, and watchdog organizations have noted, Ingress is also one of the most seductive and prolific data-mining tools to be introduced in the last decade (Hindman 2013; Hodson 2012; Kolb 2013).
