There's a new robot at Tulsa International Airport to help travelers know everything the airport has to offer.

It's part of a trial run, but the airport says people are already enjoying it.

"You can check flight information, you can see what restaurants are here on Concourse B, our guest services area, our new discovery lab area, so different things you can do while waiting for your flight," said Stephanie Chester with Tulsa International Airport. 

She says the airport is the only one in the country testing out this kind of robot.

The robot's name is CLOi and it hangs out on concourse B.

It's a trial but could be permanent if enough travelers use it.

"We've seen a lot of kids play with the robot; there's actually a feature you can take a picture with the robot, so a lot of kids have enjoyed that feature, seeing different restaurants if you're further down the concourse seeing what you can expect as you walk to your gate," Chester said.

She says the airport has really put a focus on guest experience this past year by adding things like the new discovery lab area and a new art installation, and CLOi should make waiting for your flight a little easier, too.

"So different things for us to be able to connect with customers, give them a sense of feel of Tulsa whenever they arrive to the airport, and this is just another layer of how we're continuing to improve that experience," Chester said.

CLOi will be around on Concourse B for the next two weeks.
