At the 13th edition of the Travel Magazine awards ceremony held in Belgium in November last year, Brussels Airlines was once again voted the “Best Shorthaul Airline of the Year”. Held annually at the Hilton Antwerp, the event is considered the Oscars of the Belgian travel industry, and is a highlight on the sector’s calendar.
The Travel Magazine Awards ceremony is unique as the awards are given out by the industry members to the industry players. Every year, over September and October, travel agents and travel professionals cast their votes on the various awards up for grabs. The 2010 event, which was attended by 600 guests, saw 28 awards handed out to the top players in the Belgian travel industry.
