Business Traveller Middle East Awards

Welcome to the Business Traveller Middle East Awards 2024. The prestigious annual Awards, now in its 23rd edition, will celebrate the very best across categories spanning airlines, airports and hotels.

A robust public voting system ensures the authenticity and honesty of the Awards, which in turn elevates its stature among its peers.

The winners will be announced at a gala ceremony on 6 May in Dubai at the Ritz Carlton DIFC. The event will recognise the companies that facilitated business travel and services over the past 12 months, as well as top-level industry executives who are shaping the future of the industry.

Hear from the winners themselves

Winning a Business Traveller Middle East Award, which we were lucky to do for 21 consecutive years since 2002, reflects the effort and commitment of everyone at Dubai Duty Free. As an industry benchmark for excellence, the BTME Awards are a celebration of the region’s best, and being shortlisted for and potentially winning this award provides businesses with recognition and validation. It is also a great way to boost employee morale and show that their hard work and dedication have paid off.

Industry awards are an important platform for brands to be recognised and celebrated. We were thrilled to be awarded with the ‘Airline with the Best Cabin Crew’ and ‘Airline with the Best First Class’ at the Business Traveller Middle East Awards in 2022. We appreciate the opportunity to be nominated for – and win – such awards that in turn showcase our achievements to a wider audience and builds trust within our community.
