A wayfinder system includes at least one beacon operable to transmit information that relates a position of the beacon with respect to a predefined destination. A method of directing a user to a passenger conveyance includes receiving information that relates a position of a beacon with respect to a predefined destination and displaying directions to the predefined destination from the information via a mobile device application. A method of configuring a wayfinder system for a passenger conveyance includes transiting a route from an initial point to a predefined destination; receiving information from at least one beacon along the route from the initial point to the predefined destination; and communicating the received information to the beacon such that the beacon is operable to transmit a position of the beacon with respect to the predefined destination.
