GMH Hotel: Hyatt's Big Buy, Robotic Spa Trends, José Andrés' Expansion, Delta Turmoil

Good Morning Hospitality

In this episode, Sarah Dandashy and Steve Turk discuss some intriguing developments in the hospitality and travel industries.

First up, Hyatt Hotels Corporation is reportedly in advanced talks to acquire the operator behind The Standard Hotels, potentially expanding its boutique luxury footprint. Next, we explore the latest in hotel luxury: robotic massages. Initially met with skepticism, these high-tech amenities are gaining popularity and positive reviews in luxury hotels.

We also discuss the expansion of the José Andrés Group's culinary empire into more hotel restaurants and his plans to launch a standalone hotel brand. Finally, we examine the ongoing challenges faced by Delta Air Lines, which is now in its fifth day of operational disruptions, sparking frustration among passengers and increasing scrutiny from regulators in Washington.

Join us as we unpack these stories and their implications for the future of travel and hospitality!
