How The Internet Of Things (iot) Can Benefit The Nigeria Travel Industry by Revolva(m): 9:51am On Feb 27, 2019
For those in the travel industry, one of the most important and powerful emerging technology trends, which needs to be understood and explored, is the Internet of Things, or IoT for short. It has the potential to fundamentally changing how many tourism companies operate, improve their revenue management, and enhance the customer experience.

The Internet of Things is used to refer to everyday physical devices, appliances and other ‘things’ that have been fitted with internet connectivity, making them capable of sending and receiving data. This effectively turns them into ‘smart’ objects, capable of ‘talking to’ or interacting with one another. The technology allows devices to be controlled or monitored remotely, and to perform actions automatically. Examples might range from smart energy meters, through to internet-connected vehicles and driverless cars.

How Can the Travel Industry Benefit From the IoT?

While many industries can benefit from IoT technology, the travel and tourism sector is particularly well-placed to reap the rewards, because the Internet of Things can enable further automation and greater customer experience. It can also streamline day-to-day tasks that go into running a hotel or travel company.

Personal control

One of the most widespread uses of IoT technology within the travel industry so far has been to enable a greater degree of personalisation within hotels, and on flights, and this is primarily provided by enabling customers to control more appliances or services through a centralised device, such as a tablet or even their own phone. By implementing internet-enabled heating, lighting and television, customers can turn them on and off from one place.

Seamless travel

Another great use for the Internet of Things involves streamlining as much of the customer experience as possible, across all areas of the travel industry. In airports, this may mean sending information to passengers’ smartphones, alerting them when their baggage is nearby and allowing them to locate it faster. In hotels, the check-in process can be made seamless, with hotels sending electronic key cards to guests’ phones which, when used, automatically check them in without them ever having to stop at the front desk.

Location information

Companies operating in the travel industry can also use the Internet of Things to send location-specific information to customers and to gather valuable data too. By combining smartphone capabilities or other sensors, messages can be sent to tourists at the point they are most relevant, based on where they are.

The Internet of Things (IoT) can bring transformative benefits to the Nigeria travel industry in numerous ways. Firstly, IoT can enhance passenger experiences by providing real-time information on flight status, baggage tracking, and airport facilities through connected devices and mobile apps. This improves overall customer satisfaction and streamlines travel processes.

IoT can also contribute to the safety and security of travelers. Smart surveillance cameras, facial recognition systems, and IoT-enabled sensors can enhance airport security measures, reducing risks and ensuring a safer travel environment.

Efficiency gains are another advantage. IoT can optimize airport operations, from baggage handling to aircraft maintenance, leading to cost savings and smoother operations. Additionally, IoT-driven data analytics can help airlines and travel agencies better understand passenger preferences and trends, allowing for more personalized services and targeted marketing efforts.

Moreover, IoT can support sustainable practices in the travel industry. By monitoring energy consumption, optimizing transportation routes, and reducing waste, IoT can contribute to environmental conservation, aligning with Nigeria's sustainability goals.

In summary, IoT has the potential to revolutionize the Nigeria travel industry by improving passenger experiences, enhancing safety, increasing efficiency, and promoting sustainability, ultimately making travel more convenient and enjoyable for all.With The IoT Academy's thorough IoT Certification Course, you may improve your IoT skills.
