MAKE YOUR VESSEL A (SMART) HOME
The cruise industry continues to make substantial investments in reducing its environmental impact. As part of that strategy, smart cruise solutions are a top priority to explore new ways to increase efficiencies. At the same time, smart technology can improve the cruise experience, all of which makes traveling easier and more convenient.
SMART TECH TIES THE KNOT BETWEEN GUEST EXPERIENCE AND ECOLOGIC IMPACT
You want to provide a smart home-like experience, but also need to consider energy costs. From your wealth of experience, you know that vacationers do not necessarily behave economically. Imagine your guests are on a shore excursion or in a restaurant and leave their cabin with the lights on, the air conditioning on full power, and the window or balcony door open. Aside from the efficiency that smart cruise solutions can offer, the desire and need to exceed guests’ expectations while also cutting costs will continue to be your driving factors.
PERSONALIZE YOUR IN-ROOM EXPERIENCE
Connecting in-room automation with onboard IT systems can create entirely new scenarios for you and your guests. CruiseSmart enables your guests to control their personal comfort zone by managing room temperature, lighting, curtains and blinds right from their fingertips. Moreover, they can easily request one touch services like “Do not disturb” or “Make my room”, and activate predefined room scenarios (e.g. movie night, wake up). The room control use cases are embedded in your holistic guest experience concepts, which allow easy navigation via TV, in-room wall panels and tablets or even guests’ personal mobile devices. Ultimately, guests have the ability to set up their room to their liking.
FUEL YOUR SHIP WITH GREEN-TECH KNOW-WOW
Additionally, the implementation of CruiseSmart can actually reduce costs. While staterooms are not in use, your staff is able to adjust the temperature and lighting to energy-efficient settings to prevent energy wasting and promote a more eco-friendly environment – something that many guests appreciate in today’s world. As a result, your cruise line saves energy and reduces its environmental impact while enhancing guest comfort.
CruiseSmart enables a reduction of carbon emissions by energy efficient technology and an in-room experience with a wow factor.
