Sure, when you’re traveling, it’s nice to hear a friendly voice on the end of the phone when you’re ripped from jetlagged slumber at an early hour.

So I think that Hyatt has a great idea with their new wake up call service that allows friends and familymembers to record a wake up call for you. Instead of a generic greeting, you get the personalized touch. Nice.

To introduce the service, the hotel chain is offering wake up calls from Christie Brinkley. Christie Brinkley? Billy Joel’s onetime uptown girl? The one whose recent surgeries apparently make her look like she had a somewhat jarring wake up call herself? Isn’t that particular choice of celebrities a tad… retro?
