oneworld® is continuing its award winning streak, having been named ‘Best Airline Alliance’ by the leading North American travel magazine, Business Traveler USA, at last week’s awards ceremony.
The victory makes this the ninth year oneworld has been crowned the winner in this category, as frequent business travellers continue to value the alliance’s world-class airlines offering a superior and seamless travel experience.
The awards ceremony, hosted at SGWS Wynwood in Miami, Florida, saw Loren Neuenschwander, oneworld Vice President, Membership, collect the award on behalf of the alliance.
Now in its 35th year, the Business Traveler North America Awards pay tribute to the top providers of services and products in the travel industry. Composed of premium global business travellers, the magazine’s readership has determined the award winners since the competition’s inception in 1988, alongside a hand-selected group of aviation experts, hospitality leaders and editors.
Several oneworld member airlines were praised at the ceremony, taking home a combined five awards across four airlines.
Domestically, Alaska Airlines was awarded ‘Best In-Flight Food & Beverage’, while fellow member American Airlines took home two awards for ‘Best Frequent Flyer Program’ and ‘Best Airline App’.
British Airways’ Executive Club was named as the ‘Best Frequent Flyer Program’ and Qatar Airways’ Qsuite received ‘Best Business Class’ award.
Loren Neuenschwander, oneworld Vice President, Membership, said: “To be named the ‘Best Airline Alliance’ at the Business Traveler North America Awards is an extraordinary honour for oneworld, especially with this being our milestone 25th anniversary year. This accolade truly shows the collective strength and dedication of our member airlines, who work tirelessly to provide customers with a seamless and superior global travel experience.”
This news comes just days after oneworld’s success at the Business Traveller Awards in London, having secured the title of ‘Best Airline Alliance’ for the 12th consecutive year.
The winning streak comes as the leading airline alliance celebrates its 25th anniversary, with oneworld continuing to raise the bar in premium air travel, having opened its first-ever branded lounges in Amsterdam’s Schiphol and Seoul’s Incheon airports earlier this year.
