Smoothing the 3 p.m. check-in rush

Our lobby swells from 2:45–3:30 p.m., and I’m aiming to keep each arrival under 2 minutes without sacrificing a genuine welcome. For those using Opera, are you pre-assigning by noon and staging key packets, or leaning on mobile pre-arrival to cut the line while still capturing preferences and upsell moments? What’s worked for you on a Friday with 60+ arrivals?
