If Akia existed in the 50s…

Akia wasn’t around in the 50’s but here’s how it could have enhanced the experience:

• Theme Mini-App - Customize the Akia’s mini-app, a web-based app with a 1950s design that aligns with the retro elements of the hotel aesthetics, and then text guests about property and reservation details.
• Upsell Opportunities - Use the mini app to highlight the dining experience for room service, restaurants, and cafeteria.
• Arrival Guide - Create a detailed welcome booklet that highlights amenities, themed events, accommodations to Tokyo Disney Resort, and local attractions.
