Kuoni best global tour operator for tenth year

Kuoni Travel has been named as the World’s Leading Tour Operator for the tenth consecutive year. At the 2008 World Travel Awards, the Swiss-based company once again underscored its leadership position as a leisure travel provider.

“This distinction is a clear confirmation of both the high regard in which Kuoni is held and the correctness of our present corporate course,” said Max E. Katz, Kuoni CFO and speaker of the group’s executive board. “With its modern and global brand-based business alignment and its new product lines, Kuoni has shown a fine appreciation of today’s market needs and is leading the way to a new travel culture.”

In 1993, the annual World Travel Awards were established to honour the best operators in global travel and tourism. Today, the results are based on the votes of nearly 167,000 specialists in the industry. The 2008 ceremony was held on 2 December on the Turks & Caicos in the Caribbean.

Kuoni UK was the recipient of numerous other trade and consumer awards in 2008 as well at the World Travel Award. It was voted ‘Britain’s favourite’ by the readers of The Daily Mail, The Daily Telegraph’s Ultratravel Magazine and The Sunday Times Travel Magazine.
