The kids are just now wrapping up their first full week of school after their December break, but we bet they’re already counting the days until February vacation. Parents are feverishly planning ski trips, cross-country vacations to visit grandma and grandpa, and all sorts of getaways to take advantage of this rare week off. So what does this mean for your hotel? These families – and their packages – will soon be rushing through your doors. Will you be ready for them?
As the months get colder, luggage gets heavier. Shorts and T-shirts are traded for bulky jeans and cozy sweaters. Boots replace flip flops and coats and scarves are added for warmth. You can see how those pounds start to add up quickly. Hefty luggage is a pain to maneuver through the airport – especially if you are also trying to keep an eye on your children – and airlines tack on extra fees for overweight luggage. Thus, more and more travelers are choosing to ship their winter luggage.
Your guests want to know that when they ship their luggage to your hotel, it will be waiting for them when they arrive. Enter our Easy Track It package tracking software. With our package tracking system, your front desk staff can log packages 4-10 times faster than by hand. Furthermore, with our new waypoints system, you can easily log and locate packages as they move from your front desk to your storage area. Finally, our package tracking software allows you to log items out and capture guest signatures quickly and accurately, making your accountability process easy.
While all of these benefits help you handle guest packages with ease, our package tracking software is particularly important for accommodations that attract winter sports enthusiasts. With extra heavy jackets and snow pants, skis, poles, boots, snowboards and other gear, these travelers often have no choice but to ship their items to their hotels. Not only are these items expensive, shipping them is too! Should they be lost or otherwise disappear in your hotel, you will have some extremely unhappy guests on your hands. Using our package logging system ensures that you will keep track of these important packages at all times

Is your front desk ready for the incoming winter guest packages? Make sure they log packages efficiently and accurately with our package tracking software.
