Is Your Company Better Than Average? – British Travel Awards
The British Travel Awards has the largest audience reach of any consumer holidays polling in the United Kingdom.
Annually we receive 100’s of thousands of individuals casting even more votes and opinions. These big numbers can make some companies reluctant to participate thinking the mountain is too high to climb.
To allay those concerns we have looked at the votes received by winning companies for the five years (2015 – 2019). The tables below show the average of those winning votes.
The majority of awards are graded by company size with up to nine accreditations in each category.
