Business Traveller Awards

Today, we have announced the winners of the region’s most prestigious travel awards. The Business Traveller Asia-Pacific Awards is now in its 30th year and continues to celebrate the best in the travel and hospitality industry as voted by some of the region’s most qualified judges: the Business Traveller Asia-Pacific readers.

Taking an average of 19 business trips a year (pre-Covid), our readers are experts in assessing what constitutes the perfect flight and an exceptional hotel. Each year, we invite more than 30,000 of our loyal subscribers to cast their votes in our Reader Poll and share their opinions on everything from the best brands to the most impressive in-flight experiences.

The poll ran from July to September, with the results independently compiled by research agency, Business Intelligence. Today, the airports, hotels, and airlines that have most impressed this discerning audience have been crowned as the winners of their category.
