It’s that time of year again! TravAlliancemedia has begun the 2019 nomination process for the fifth-annual Travvy Awards.

Although the 2019 Travvy Awards gala is still six months off, suppliers have until Sept. 1 to submit nominations for awards in innumerable categories.

Always remember that it is you, the travel agent, who serves as judge and jury when it comes to the Travvy awards. They are awarded by you—agents who work each and every day with cruise lines, hotel and resort companies, tour operators and vacation packagers, destinations and tourism boards, car rental and rail companies, technology providers, attractions and travel insurance providers.

The Travvys belong to you. This is your awards program and your chance to reward those suppliers that go to bat for you every day. Don’t miss your chance to vote for your favorites!

Last year, the readers of Agent@Home, Vacation Agent and TravelPulse.com cast more than 100,000 votes in 100-plus categories.

The Travvy Awards have quickly earned the reputation as the Academy Awards of the travel industry.

Winners will be showcased in Agent@Home and Vacation Agent magazines and profiled on TravelPulse.com. They will also be honored at a lavish awards gala to be held Jan. 23 at Gotham Hall in New York City.

The primary categories are Airline Consolidators, Airlines, Car Rentals, Cruises, Destinations, Hotels & Resorts, Rail Travel, Tour Operators, Travel Agencies, Travel Insurance and Travel Technology.

Travel agents can start voting in early October through Dec. 1.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. For more information on nominations, sponsorships, lists of winners and photos from the 2018 gala, visit TravvyAwards.com.
