There is provided a method and a system to permit face-to-face rendezvous which enables one person to announce the desire to rendezvous with another person so that the another person can be alerted to the desire and then make face-to-face contact. Information identifying the one person is input into a first input station (3) and that information is then stored in said first input station. The input station is then activated to retrieve the stored information and to transfer that information to a receiving station (15) together with first station input station ID data. The another person is then alerted to the information and the ID data by the receiving station (15). An acknowledgement signal is provided to the first input station (3) so that said one person can be made aware that the information has been received. A plurality of second input stations (13, 18) are provided at other locations so that when the first person is at one of the second stations that person can input further information identifying presence at the second input station (13, 18) so that the another person can be advised that the one person is at a particular one of the second input stations (13, 18). The system and method facilitates rendezvous particularly at airports and other large public transportation establishments. A further input station can be provided at a point of departure in a transportation system thereby alerting the another person to the fact that the one person is at the point of departure. This will pre-prepare the another person for the expected arrival having regard to the transit time between the point of departure and the point of arrival.
