More airports to host Kiosk service over the next 12 months
PHOENIX, Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- SuperShuttle just made travel
easier at Baltimore-Washington International airport (BWI) with the
introduction of "kiosk" service for its shared-ride SuperShuttle
ground transportation. Passengers using SuperShuttle transportation
will be able to book, confirm and pay for their reservations at the
SuperShuttle Kiosk located in the ground transportation area, next
to the SuperShuttle service counters. BWI is the first kiosk
service available in the U.S. Other airports in the SuperShuttle
system including Dulles and Reagan in the Washington, D.C. area,
Denver International, Denver; George Bush International, Houston;
Austin-Bergstrom International, Austin, Texas; Kansas City
International Airport, Kansas City, Mo.; Minneapolis-St. Paul
International and Sacramento International in California will all
be coming on line over the next 10-12 months. The kiosk system for
SuperShuttle was designed by Tempe, AZ based Phoenix Kiosk, Inc.
and will allow SuperShuttle customers to also make a reservation
through the SuperShuttle website and then once they are at the
airport customers can use the kiosk to recall an existing
reservation, to check-in or pay. They can also book a new
reservation and pay for the transaction with a credit card. The
system then prints a ticket and a receipt for the customer. "We're
very excited about the new kiosks," said Mike Hogan, CIO of
SuperShuttle, who headed the project. "Self-service Kiosks are
becoming the norm at airports and we think our customers will
benefit from using our service when lines at the customer service
desk are long. The airlines have been providing this service for
quite some time and now we think the time is right for kiosk
service to be available for our customers as well." SuperShuttle
