GateGuru, CEO, Dan Gellert on Jetiquette@ The Sky Steward Radio Show!
Finding your way around airport terminals has gotten infinitely easier with a remarkable app for the Appel iPhone. It’s GateGuru.
I think we’ve all experienced the added airport frustration that comes with heading the wrong way in the concourse or terminal in search of something good to eat, settled on a dried out $12 sandwich from an airport restaurant, and then discovering a lovely gourmet cafe that was just around the corner but missed. Airport directories are sometimes hard to find and/or read and airport personnel are not always available and this is where GateGuru comes in.
Here are some of the great things GateGuru does:
- Most comprehensive and accurate listing of airport amenities (sortable by Food, Shops and Services).
- Easy-to-use and eye-friendly user interface.
- Access to real-time ratings, reviews and photos – Avoid unappealing airport lounges, shady-looking restaurants or poor service – you deserve better! Quickly and easily locate the highest rated restaurant, shop or service by your fellow travelers.
- Simple search engine – Know your pre or post-security options; what is near your gate; gift stores or ATMs close by; the nearest coffee shop and much more.
- Bookmark function – Easily retrieve tagged information on the restaurants, shops and services you have enjoyed in the past.
- Participate in the leaderboard – Earn points as you utilize GateGuru and improve your ranking among other travelers. Get honored as the “Captain” of your airport locally or nationally. Monitor your ranking versus your Facebook friends.
- Become a Guru – In addition to GateGuru’s interactive online community, update your Twitter and Facebook status with updates, tips and/or reviews as you travel.
It is amazing how many airport concessions are shown on GateGuru and the fact that they cover a growing list of airports (85 and counting).
It is really a very enjoyable application to use and you can get a feel for it from their website at www.gateguruapp.com

This looks like the perfect scenario for the use of Augmented Reality. I want to hold up my iPhone and see superimposed over the kiosks around me just how good a value each is. Meantime, I’ll start adding some reviews and tips based on my own airport experiences.
