Introduction

The programme works on the services the concierge arranges around the guest's journey. It covers the airport transfer, booked by flight number and followed until arrival, and the service on board hotel and partner cars. It covers the selection and briefing of drivers, guides and boat crews, with the safety instructions given to the guest. It includes luggage storage, bags lost by the airline, parcels arriving and shipped, online check-in and travel documents. It closes with calling a doctor and with third-party payments made on the guest's behalf.

The outcome

The guest finds a driver waiting at the airport with their name, leaves on time with the boarding pass ready, and gets luggage and parcels back intact. Every outside partner works to the hotel's rules, and every expense paid for the guest appears on the bill as agreed, with its receipt.
