Travel Technology Expert Naimish Sinha

“Travel technology facilitates smooth communication and quick connection across continents and borders. This further facilitates the instant transfer of information which is crucial for various hospitality operations such as bookings, communication with customers, etc. While hotel management software solutions have been used for years to simplify various tasks in hotels, modern technology makes things far better and easier than just booking, checking hotel records, and managing staff,” says Naimish Sinha – Travel Technology Expert and CTO at EaseMyTrip – one of the top-rated travel company with a rapidly increasing client base.

By automating payments, booking, and other back-office tasks, travel technology has made travel planning and execution super easy for all. Today, customers can book their air/ train/ bus tickets, hotel accommodation, etc. right online without the help of a travel agent. Technology helps improve operational efficiency and allows hotel management to cut costs by replacing unnecessary human labor. Travel technology also helps improve customer service by enabling better communication and staff management.

Travel agencies benefit immensely from travel technology as it helps them improve their operations and services. However, it is not that just travel companies are the beneficiaries of travel technology; consumers also have a lot to gain. “Travellers can find all the information they need about the destination they are planning to visit. With all the required information and knowledge about their chosen travel destination, they don’t miss the sites, fun, and foods specific to the place they are traveling to,” he adds.

You can book a hotel room anywhere in the world from anywhere without even visiting the hotel. Travel technology facilitates virtual tours of hotel rooms and surroundings. With augmented reality-enabled websites and apps, you can have a first-hand look at how your chosen hotel and accommodation looks and feels. This helps in better and more informed decision-making.

With technology making everything so easy, travelers save on the expenses they would have to make if they choose a travel agency for booking accommodation, flight/bus/train tickets, and other services during their trip. The money saved can be used to have fun and enjoy the trip.

“The world has become a much smaller place now, thanks to technology. Travel technology brings all the travel destinations, accommodation options, foods, and fun in just a small device that we call a “smartphone”. All you need is an internet-enabled mobile device to check information about your chosen destination, hotels and rooms available, foods, places worth visiting, specialty, what to buy, popular markets, transportation, entertainment sites, and much more,” as per Naimish.

When asked what he feels about travel organizations that have still not adopted technology, he said, “Technology has changed the travel industry completely and if you aren’t paying attention to the need of the hour, you will be out of the business soon.” Travel technology helps provide better customer service and reduces manual work.

IoT devices, mobile apps, and contactless payments are some of the blessings of travel technology that make travel easy and fun for all. Technology-powered travel planning is relatively cheaper, faster, better, and even more eco-friendly as you don’t need to carry so many papers (tickets, travel manuals, etc.) while traveling.

With technology, travel has become quite safer as well. IoT, GPS systems, and wearable devices make it possible for a traveler to explore even the most remote and unexplored destinations. There is no fear of getting lost or stranded even if you are visiting the place for the first time.

Travel technology not only makes travel faster, easier, better, and safer but it also helps you get the best bargain. Travelers can compare hotels, transportation options, and other services they need during their trip and buy the one that fits their budget and need.
