TAP Portugal was voted the “Best Airline in
Europe” by the Global Traveler magazine, USA, the leading specialized
publication in the Tourism & Travel niche.
Launched ten years ago, with the
aim of acknowledging and naming the top in the travel industry, the Global
Traveler Awards are one of the most relevant and coveted awards and mean a
great deal to TAP, as the winners result from the GT Tested Reader Survey
annually conducted by the magazine, asking frequent business and luxury
travellers to evaluate and vote the best in a wide range of travel-related
products. In the whole, this year’s survey covered as many as 17 categories,
including world-wide airlines, hotels, loyalty programs and many other travel
products.
For TAP, this GT Award not only recognizes and
rewards the dedication and hard work that the company has consistently
developed in recent years in the very competitive and demanding North-American
market, but also highlights its top quality product as well as the great
potential of its main hub in Lisbon, which is a strategic platform offering
excellent air connections between North America and Europe.
The Global Traveler is a leader magazine in its
sector, with a very large circulation worldwide. Its readers are frequent
premium travellers averaging a considerable number of international and
domestic round-trip flights a year. The 2013 GT Awards now announced resulted
from the direct voting of more than 22,000 people who responded the survey from
January 1 to August 31, 2013. This year’s winners will be honored and awarded
at a cocktail reception to be held on December 10 at the Peninsula Beverly
Hills, in Los Angeles, California.
