XpresSpa to Bring
Pampering Directly to Travelers with Convenient Pop-Up Facilities
and Luxury Spa Services
NEW YORK - March 14, 2017 - XpresSpa, the
industry-leading luxury airport spa company and a wholly owned
subsidiary of FORM Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: FH), today announced
that it will introduce its kiosk and pop-up spa prototypes at the
13th Annual
ARN Revenue Conference & Exhibition, the largest gathering of
airport decision-makers and concession executives, in New
Orleans.
"While airlines are unable to control flight
delays due to unexpected weather, mechanical issues or air traffic,
they can now offer travelers indulging services and amenities right
at their gate within minutes," said Ed Jankowski, XpresSpa's Chief
Executive Officer. "XpresSpa's fully-immersive
pop-up spa prototype was developed as part of our customer-focused
expansion plans and we're excited to display them first at the 2017
ARN Conference."
In addition to the 53 full-service XpresSpa
facilities in 23 airports, XpresSpa's kiosk and pop-up concepts
were developed to offer immediate, mobile solutions for travelers
who want accessible spa treatments. XpresSpa's mobile experiences
can be fully operational quickly due to their portable design, open
layout and minimalistic style; however, the experience is upscale
and built for pre-and-post flight pampering, relaxation and
comfort. XpresSpa's airport partners will now have the flexibility
to set up portable spas at busy gates during airline delays or
cancellations. Services will include chair massages and
express manicures, among others.
The kiosk design gives XpresSpa the ability to
quickly set up a spa in the middle of busy terminals that have open
space available. XpresSpa has tested this concept with
positive results in Miami International Airport, where there is
already an in-line spa and in Charlotte Douglas International
Airport, during the build out of two new in-line spas.
Since announcing FORM's acquisition of XpresSpa in
August, 2016, the brand has further expanded its footprint in
terminal locations throughout the country and continues to enhance
the spa experience for travelers, reinforcing the company's
presence as the number one luxury airport spa brand.
XpresSpa executives will be
available at the ARN Conference & Exhibition on Tuesday, March
14 from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM CST and on Wednesday, March 15 from 8:00
AM to 2:30 PM CST in Booth #415. Manicures and
massages will also be available for conference attendees.
