Step inside HMSHost’s Airport Terminal Simulation Lab to explore the latest technology solutions for airport dining
Just imagine it—an airport terminal tucked inside of an office building in the outskirts of Washington, DC. But not even just any airport terminal. One with the latest technologies you could imagine, all in one place. HMSHost has unveiled imagineIT, an “airport terminal” innovation lab where the company can explore all the latest technical possibilities for its restaurants and travel offerings.
HMSHost’s imagineIT allows employees and consultants to demo various technologies in real-life scenarios related to the traveler experience, with several simulation stations including a restaurant and bar, front-of-house and back-of-house area, gatehold seating area, and lounge, among others. It also provides an avenue for vendors to showcase their latest technology solutions for busy airport settings.
With the exploration capabilities offered by imagineIT, HMSHost identifies new solutions that can continuously enhance operations efficiencies and entertainment to create the best overall traveler experience.
