It's funny how the conversation went from "What information is on the screen" to how old and antiquated their system is... lol

I had a look at the screen at the Ren Malmo yesterday when checking out, and it's a Windows system rather than the ASCII one posted above. Still seems to display the same info though.

I'll just point to the issues UA/CO and American West and US have experienced in the past

Check in screen

Does anyone have a screen shot or other pic of what the check in screen looks like when the FD agent checks you in? How does it display my rewards account info/ elite status and special requests (such as high floor)? I know there was a thread a few months ago but that pic was from a few years ago.

Oh you mean the thread from a week or so ago? scroll back last few pages; you'll find it.

The pic is from a few years ago, but I've heard no one say that the current system isn't the same. Are you looking for a more recent photo of the same screen? Or do you believe the current system is different?

From the data above, a new system will go in early next year.

current generation of systems will not start to be replaced until 2015

I was staying at the Ritz in Toronto recently when the front desk rep said "wow - you really like our hotels, huh?"

I was a bit surprised and taken aback by this -- he said that he could see all of my previous stays at different RC properties (maybe 8-9 in the prior 12 months?)

A little creepy...

Past future stays on the system can be useful. Recently we were on a multistay Marriott Ritz trip and left something valuable at Marriott #1. Checking in at Marriott #2, the clerk called Marriott #1 and arranged to have it shipped to Marriott #3.

But couldn't you just say to clerk #2, hey we forgot something at #1, is it possible to have them ship it to #3? That doesn't really need a check-in screen.

Cheers.

What is most interesting is Nights to Renew... if you have a credit card that gives you, say, platinum, it would be a lot of nights...late in the year..easy to know you are not important.

That said, I saw nothing like that on my screen in a recent stay at a FFI. It did say that I had the Marriott Biz card.
