In a glittering ceremony at Dubai’s iconic Burj Al Arab, Star Alliance was awarded its fourth consecutive win as the World’s Leading Airline Alliance at the prestigious World Travel Awards. The event marked the 30th edition of the awards, dedicated to recognizing and celebrating excellence in the travel, tourism, and hospitality sectors.
This outstanding achievement follows the North America edition in August 2023, where Star Alliance’s Los Angeles airport lounge clinched the title of North America’s Leading Airport Lounge for an impressive fourth year in a row. This accomplishment further solidifies Star Alliance’s position as a trailblazer in airport hospitality.
“We are truly honored to receive the World Travel Awards for the fourth consecutive year. This achievement is a testament to the relentless dedication of employees within the Star Alliance network who strive to provide consistent and seamless travel experiences,” according to Theo Panagiotoulias, Star Alliance CEO.
The World Travel Awards winners are selected through a global poll involving qualified executives in the travel and tourism sector, along with input from consumer travel buyers. The accolade not only reflects Star Alliance’s commitment to excellence but also underscores its consistent efforts in delivering exceptional services to travelers.
In addition to the alliance-level recognition, several Star Alliance member carriers secured individual victories at this year’s awards. These triumphs serve as a testament to the collective strength and excellence of Star Alliance and its member airlines, reinforcing their dedication to providing unparalleled service in the ever-evolving travel landscape.
“Congratulations to Star Alliance for winning ‘World’s Leading Airline Alliance 2023.’ This is a remarkable achievement, reflecting how the brand is setting the global aviation alliance benchmark. The commitment of the entire Star Alliance team serves as an inspiration to us all,” said Graham E. Cooke, Founder of the World Travel Awards.
