Nomination and Voting Process

Readers of  Travel Weekly  have until 15 October 2009 to nominate their favourite suppliers for the 34 Globe Travel Award categories. The voting supplement will appear with the 20 November issue of Travel Weekly, where travel agents  have until 11 December 2009 to vote for their favourite shortlisted companies.  The integrity of the Globes is paramount to the success of the awards, as it remains one of the few awards ceremonies where the winners are voted solely by the industry. To ensure the highest standards and the ultimate service is recognised it is travel agents who determine the winners.  All votes submitted are collated and checked to ensure only UK travel agent votes are counted.  A weighting system is used to ensure the voting is as fair and transparent as possible.
