Tony Roberts, vice president UK and Europe, told TTG that the line had seen a “huge amount of interest” from travel consultants in the device - which will debut onboard Regal Princess later this year.
The Ocean Medallion platform will enable passengers to order food and drinks on demand; speed up the port embarkation and disembarkation process; locate friends and family around the ship; access their staterooms as they approach the door and purchase merchandise without any transaction.
It will later feature on Royal Princess from January 2018 and agents will be invited onboard during the vessel’s British Isles sailings, Roberts explained.
