“Flyte Systems’ FlyteBoard and other travel services add considerable value to our properties by providing confidence and convenience to guests,” said Craig Strickler, Kokua Hospitality LLC’s vice president of transitions & standards. Kokua operates the Embassy Suites Baltimore Downtown. “Kokua installs FlyteBoard and FlytePass boarding pass printing at its properties to maximize peace of mind for airport-bound guests.

Strickler noted that Flyte Systems is launching a new guest service display called InfoBoard that provides a full spectrum of travel and property information. “I used InfoBoard at a recent tradeshow and liked it.

They can also check out local eateries and entertainment, and see weather, traffic, and news.”
