So What’s the Big Deal About Travvys Anyway?

The Travvy Awards are one of the only travel awards chosen by travel advisors, who, TravelPulse Executive Editor Eric Bowman puts it, are “the real travel influencers.”

Each award category is voted upon by thousands of travel advisors who often know the brands and travel companies the best.

Representatives from hotel and resort brands, destinations, tour operators, cruise lines and more gathered during the in-person gala and ceremony to accept the awards they’ve received. This year's event took place at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Marina in South Florida on November 3.

How The Travvys Are Awarded

Travel advisors vote upon their favorite travel brands and companies, first curated by our dedicated editorial team, across several different categories, including airlines, cruise lines, hotels and resorts and more.

The awards are staggered in first, second and third place for each category, which could range from the best resorts for destination weddings to the best adventure destinations, for example. Like in the Olympics, first place is called “gold,” second place is “silver,” and third place is “bronze.”
