TUI unveils vision for the future

Thursday, 16 January 20143 min read

TUI has unveiled its vision for the customer journey of the future in a new video.

The travel giant claims it is developing a holiday experience that will "know what you want before you do".

The video promises a range of technology innovations that will allow customers to:

– set up a holiday journal, based on the ideas and browsing history of everyone going on the trip

– get advice and tips from other TUI customers who have shared their holiday memories

– order anything they’ve forgotten, for example sun cream, on the way to the airport and have it delivered to their airline seat

– be in contact with resort reps 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from the moment of booking

– pay for souvenirs and other items in resort with a mobile phone and have the amount added to their hotel bill

– use a mobile device on arrival at the airport to get directions to the transfer bus

– receive daily weather reports and recommendations for sightseeing and activities while in resort

– send and store holiday photos to the holiday journal

– make special requests, like lactose-free ice cream, before the holiday.
