Deadline extended for Travel Industry Awards by TTG entries
James ChappleEntries for The Travel Industry Awards 2021 by TTG, in association with Virgin Atlantic, have been extended by a week to Friday 21 May owing to the incredible demand throughout the travel community to participate.
Across 24 agent and supplier categories, the awards – due to be held at Magazine London on 30 September – will celebrate the efforts of travel’s diverse array of businesses to weather the Covid-19 crisis, and emerge stronger.
The awards will carry a new trust mark of excellence and will represent the most prestigious accolade in travel, which will serve to highlight to consumers travel’s most trusted brands.
Entrants are asked to look beyond sales and growth to focus on how they support customers, how they build and maintain relationships with industry partners and local communities, how they have shown resolve, resilience and steel over the past year, and how they achieve inclusivity and make themselves accessible to all.
TTG has produced guides to help agents and suppliers hone their entries ahead of the new 21 May deadline.
The new awards programme comprises four groups of categories, including trade-facing supplier categories rated by travel agents and judged by senior leaders from TTG’s Top 50 Travel Agencies 2021, and supplier categories judged by expert judging panels drawn from the highest level of the industry.
There are also individual travel seller categories, and and special categories that reward sustainable companies, responsible travel initiatives and excellent places to work.
TTG will also honour Hays Travel founder, the late John Hays, at the awards – and at future awards – with a new annual Entrepreneur of the Year accolade.
An advisory board, comprising nine travel leaders from across the industry, has been convened to consult on the event and assure The Travel Industry Awards 2021 by TTG is an event that resonates with all in travel.
