After months of planning, hours of traveling and patiently waiting for your vacation to begin, the last thing any traveler wants to stand in his or her way is another line. Once you arrive at your destination and it is time to check into your hotel or hostel, it is possible a lengthy line of people awaits, preventing you from getting your holiday off the ground.

 

A new mobile app called GTRIIP enters the travel landscape to make checking in and starting your vacation quick and easy. Register and create a profile using the app (available for IOS and Android devices) and prepare for the quickest hotel check-in of your life.

 

Users can book accommodations directly on the app. When guests are ready to check-in, the app relies on Touch ID for iPhones and Nexus Imprint sensor for Android phones for an easy arrival process that requires neither an internet connection nor mobile data. With a quick touch of your finger, you can check into your hotel room and (in some facilities) receive access to your keyless room.

 

Not only does GTRIIP save time and hassle for the traveler, it also improves the service hotels can provide to their guests. Lines will be shorter and travelers will be happier, providing a pleasant travel experience for all parties involved.
