Computationally implemented methods and systems that are designed for receiving a request for transporting one or more end users towards a destination location; providing a travel plan for facilitating the one or more end users to travel to the destination location from a starting location, the travel plan identifying at least two route legs including at least one transport route leg that calls for at least one transportation vehicle unit to transport the one or more end users over the transport route leg; and directing the at least one transportation vehicle unit to rendezvous with the one or more end users at a rendezvous location in order to transport the one or more end users over the transport route leg. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.

A method includes: a travel planning system, via a user interface, receives requirements for a trip from a user; collects preference information of the user for the trip; searches available travel options based on the requirements and the preference information; builds an itinerary based on the searched travel options by use of a balance combination of relative weights for sources of the preference information; applies external data relevant to the itinerary; obtains a response to the itinerary from the user; either adjusts the itinerary or makes reservations respective to the travel options in the itinerary, depending on types of a response from the user; records at least one change to the itinerary via the user interface in a user device while the user device is off-line; and responsive to the user device getting online, synchronizes the at least one change to the itinerary stored in the travel planning system.

A block generation unit 13 generates, in a predetermined case, a block including an ID of a user in a blockchain. The block generation unit 13 generates a new block including information indicating a service provider and service contents, when face data of the user and the service contents are received from a terminal of the service provider and face authentication is successful based on the face data and face authentication data, or when the ID of the user and the service contents are received from the terminal of the service provider, and adds the new block to the blockchain.

A baggage delivery system includes: an acquisition unit that obtains an accommodation information about accommodations of a customer on the basis of a customer information, which is information about the customer who uses a facility; a delivery unit that performs a procedure for delivering baggage of the customer from the facility to the accommodations on the basis of the accommodation information; and a giving unit that gives a completion information indicating that delivery of the baggage is completed, to the accommodation information, when the delivery of the baggage to the accommodations is completed.

Methods and systems for implementing a repository of customizable itineraries are disclosed. Based at least in part on user input, trip components are selected from a repository of itineraries based at least in part on user input from a first user. The trip components represent events or locations. Recommendation input for customizing the trip components is obtained from additional users. A customized itinerary is selected based at least in part on the itinerary and the recommendation input. The customized itinerary comprises one or more user-selected modifications to a chronological order or one or more user-selected substitutions to the set of trip components. The customized itinerary is stored in the repository of itineraries.

Systems and methods for facilitating a multi-modal transportation service are provided. The method includes obtaining a request for an aerial transport from a user via user device and generating a multi-modal transportation itinerary for the user to facilitate the aerial transport of the user. The method includes determining a state change indicative of the progress of the user through the transportation service and adjusting an aerial software application running on an aerial device associated with an aerial service provider based on the state change. The method includes determining a subsequent state change occurring after the state change, determining a ground vehicle to provide a ground transportation for the user during another leg of the multi-modal transportation service based on the subsequent state, and adjusting a ground software application running on a ground device associated with the ground vehicle service provider based on the subsequent state change.

In a computerized remapping system for airline seat bookings, actual airline seat bookings are restated in a remapped form reflecting the value of each leg of the booking from a network perspective, facilitating improved demand forecasts for subsequent seat bookings. In this manner, seat protects and seat pricing may be better allocated to align with actual demand.

A system and method include one or more processors configured to determine a risk index associated with a risk of exposure to a health threat for each node within a chain of nodes during a stage of a journey. The risk index for each node is based on occupancy characteristics of the node, a set of one or more control measures in effect to reduce the risk of exposure in the node, and a health threat prevalence in a jurisdiction associated with the node. The one or more processors are further configured to aggregate the risk indices for the nodes to determine a risk value associated with the stage of the journey, and to generate a control signal to notify a user of the risk value associated with the stage of the journey.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method for configuring indication information for transportation services. The method includes receiving a first transportation request which includes a first passenger pick-up point located in a preset geographical area, and the first transportation request matches a first vehicle. The method also includes receiving a second transportation request which includes a second passenger pick-up point located in the preset geographical area, and the second transportation request matches a second vehicle. The method further includes generating first indication information for the first transportation request and second indication information for the second transportation request based on a time difference between a first estimated time for the first vehicle to arrive in the preset geographical area and a second estimated time for the second vehicle to arrive in the preset geographical area.

The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus, and system for realizing dynamic scheduling for a cinema and controlling playing of a movie. In particular, embodiments of the present invention relate to dynamic scheduling of content presentation in a cinema by collecting user preferences of a plurality of users, wherein the user preference specifies at least a movie that a user desires to watch, a time for watching the movie, a cinema for watching the movie, and a number of people watching the movie; generating, based on the collected user preferences, a respective dynamic schedule for at least one cinema of a plurality of cinemas according to one of a plurality of scheduling schemes; and transmitting the generated respective dynamic schedule to at least one second electronic apparatus corresponding to the at least one cinema.
