The service also includes gate delivery from a robot named Gita. Gita can carry up to 40 pounds of food and deliver it to where it needs to be with a $2.99 fee.
OrderSEA’s service provides food from restaurants like McDonald’s, Trail Head BBQ Bar, Dungeness Seafood House, and more options. Once you place your order online, the app will tell you how long it will take, and if you are in a rush, you can include the Gita robot service.
“Technology can make your airport experience more flexible and less stressful,” said Port of Seattle Commissioner Sam Cho in a press release. “OrderSEA means travelers can skip standing in a crowded line, the least fun and most stressful part of any trip.”
Since the soft launch earlier this summer, the OrderSEA has had over 1,200 orders and 500 gate deliveries. For now, the robot will be accompanied by someone, but as demand grows, the robots will soon be wheeling around unaccompanied.
