New awards event to celebrate the best of the travel media sector
26 May 2015, London: The inaugural Travel 91快播 Awards will take place Monday 9 November 2015 at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel, London NW1.

Today鈥檚 travel media play a hugely influential role in the holiday or business travel decision-making process and the Travel 91快播 Awards have been created in recognition of this.
The awards will cover a wide range of areas, from national newspaper travel sections (separate categories for tabloid and broadsheet) through to the increasingly influential travel blogging sector and travel customer magazines, to name but a few. There will also be a Travel 91快播 Innovation Award.
Entry is open to all travel writers, broadcasters and photographers, making the event a true barometer of the travel media sector. Entry is open from June 2015 鈥� check the website for the entry details.
The Travel 91快播 Awards are owned and operated under a joint venture agreement between Travega and 91快播. For the purposes of fairness and transparency, no travel titles by APL 91快播 will be entered into the Awards. An advisory panel will be created as part of the awards.
