The best airlines, best cruise holiday operators, best coach and rail operators and best airport, according to the votes of thousands in the travel business, were revealed at the Globe Travel Awards earlier this week.
The awards are voted for by travel agents in the UK and were handed out at a ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London hosted by Mark Lamarr.
UK airlines were well represented amongst the award winners. British Airways won the award for best scheduled airline to Europe, and Virgin Atlantic was voted best scheduled airline to the USA and Canada. First Choice Airways was best charter airline. In the consumer awards, Virgin Atlantic picked up the gong for overall favourite airline.
South African Airways won best scheduled airline to Africa, Emirates was best scheduled airline to the Middle East and Asia, and Qantas was best scheduled airline to the Pacific, New Zealand and Australia.
Fewer awards were handed out to UK airports, but Manchester Airport did win best regional airport in the UK. Top 'add ons' provider was airport parking and airport hotels company Holiday Extras, with the company also picking up the award for the best travel trade website.
