Travelzoo has been named the “World’s Leading Travel Deals Website 2013”
by the World Travel Awards organization. The prestigious award was
received by Travelzoo Inc. (TZOO),
a global Internet media company, at the 20th annual World
Travel Awards ceremony in Doha, Qatar.
The World Travel Awards (WTA), established in 1983, is regarded globally
as the highest accolade in the travel industry and have been called the
“travel industry’s equivalent of the Oscars” by the Wall Street Journal.
Consumers and over 200,000 travel industry professionals cast their
votes online to select the winners. WTA’s media partners include CNBC,
Newsweek, and The New York Times.
“It is a great honour to be recognised by travellers worldwide,” said
Chris Loughlin, Travelzoo’s chief executive officer. “Since 1998, we
have saved our subscribers more than $10 billion on travel and leisure
deals. Unlike other deal websites, we focus squarely on quality; we only
recommend trips we would take ourselves.”
The “World’s Leading Travel Deals Website” award comes on the heels of
two British Travel Awards (BTA’s), which Travelzoo received earlier this
year, including Best Travel Deals Website in the U.K.
