    I found an old article on Physical Plant and preparation for Y2K! The claimed that high tech hotels needed to check their flash light batteries, first floor grounding of elevators, back up generators and fuel tanks. Besides the fact that this is written for doomsday Y2K they have a valid point to have a disaster plan if an earthquake, hurricane or any disaster takes the hotel off line. Loss of power is a real threat especially in hurricane Miami. We need to know that data will be backed up, rooms can be accessed, and that people will not remain stuck in an elevator. Please read below With hotel systems growing ever-more tech-dependent, disaster planning extends well beyond protecting data. Proaction Better Than Reaction Computer Systems Demand Special Attention Just outside California's state capital, the Sheraton Sacramento Rancho Cordova Hotel is a magnet for business travelers in the high-tech and government sectors.

  • Airlines used to employ fleets of operators just to process reservations. They sat around circular tables with scores of index cards — one for each flight — housed on a rotating shelf
  • The process would take 90 minutes for each reservation.
  • After CRS systems became commonplace, travel agents became the airline industry’s bottleneck.

  • As the middleman, the GDS charged airlines and travel agents a fee for each booking.
  • CRS systems started sharing data with one another,

  • These terminals would only be useful if they let agents search for flights from multiple airlines all together.
  • Their goal is to charge each customer the most they’d be willing to pay.
  • The solution is to have seats at many different price points.
  • To maximise revenue, airlines optimise fare class sizes and prices by analysing historical trends.
  • different Google searches often yield different fares for the same seat on the same flight
  • only travel agencies that have been accredited by the IATA (International Air Transport Authority) can use them, and accreditation is an arduous process riddled with acronyms.

    The machine learning for hotel properties is dynamic and constantly evolving. Beyond the common uses of Artificial Intelligence such as robotic housekeepers and facial recognition, hotels can deploy machine plearning in different areas such as systems that optimize the use of energy, water and other resources; human resource management such as the one used by IHG; and customer service.
