Guest-tekTM Launches myAway App on March 30th, 2012
 

 
Calgary, Alberta April 9, 2012 – Guest-tek announced the official release of myAway, their first mobile application available to guests staying at Guest-tek enabled hotels. This app will give guests the ability to control their in-room TVs, personal calendar integration and flight information. World radio is also built in, so guests can listen to their favourite radio stations on the TVs in their room, or on their iPad. Some of myAway’s other features are local and destination weather forecasts, restaurant locator, ability to browse and purchase hotel movie content and much more.
 
Connection is easy, guests download the free app and enter the myAway connect code that is shown on their TV screen, it’s that quick. Enhancements and new features are expected to be added on a continuous basis as the needs of travellers increase and change.
 
Peter Warrick Chief Technology Officer stated, March 30th - “We developed this app with the end user in mind. Hotel guests rely on mobile apps as companions with them on the road, so we created myAway as a personal travel organizer as well as an in-room control. We realized that anyone who travels needs more than what is offered, that is the vision behind myAway. “
