Abstract
The techniques herein are directed generally to managing hotel guest departures within an automated guest satisfaction and services scheduling system. In particular, in the present disclosure, for instance, the techniques herein provide a method and system to allow guests to easily manage and schedule their departure (check-out) through the interactive interface. The interface may include various modal notifications regarding check-out options, such as requesting the guest to enter their departure time preferences. The system also facilitates notification of a housekeeping services scheduler, and further allows the hotel to incentivize or monetize different check-out times.
