Upgrade Your Kreuzfahrtschiffe & Fähren Service with QR Ordering

Cruise ships and ferries operate multiple restaurants, bars, cafés, and room-service kitchens — all serving a rotating roster of international passengers who speak dozens of different languages. Printed menus in five or six languages are bulky, expensive to reprint, and still leave most passengers without their native language. Scan2Order changes the game with a single QR code that serves every menu in up to 31 languages instantly.

Place QR codes in every dining venue on board: the main dining room, the buffet, the specialty restaurant, the pool bar, the cocktail lounge, and the cabin minibar card. Passengers scan once and browse in their own language — a Japanese couple reads the sushi bar menu in Japanese, a French family checks the bistro in French, a Brazilian guest orders poolside drinks in Portuguese. No staff translation needed, no confusion, no delays.

For cruise operators, the operational benefits are enormous. Menu changes for the evening gala dinner, the captain's table, or the port-of-call themed night go live fleet-wide in seconds — no reprinting, no waste. Sold-out dishes are removed in real time, reducing kitchen frustration and passenger disappointment. Analytics reveal which cuisines and dishes are most popular by voyage, passenger demographic, and time of day — data that helps F&B directors optimize provisioning, reduce food waste, and plan future menus with confidence.

Ferries benefit equally: shorter crossings with limited galley staff need fast, efficient ordering. Passengers scan at their seat, order food and drinks, and enjoy the journey without queuing at a crowded counter. Multi-language support is critical on international ferry routes connecting countries with different languages — a Baltic ferry serving Finnish, Swedish, Estonian, and German passengers handles all four effortlessly through one QR code.
