The agency came away from Monday’s ceremony (7 July) at Grant Thornton in London with a hat-trick of awards, including best large company.

Other "standout" winners included Access Bookings (best mid-size company) and Luxury Coastal (best small total). In total, 20 travel companies were recognised for their efforts to champion people and talent.

Yorkshire’s Beverley Travel also made the top 20.

Gail Kenny, who co-founded the awards and accompanying employee survey, said that the 2025 programme demonstrated "that despite continued economic pressure and ongoing industry change, people still matter".
