With a continuing emphasis on being one of the world’s leading tourism destinations, Jamaica has been recognised with two 2022 WAVE (Western Advisors’ Vote of Excellence) Awards by TravelAge West. The destination has been awarded ‘Destination with the Highest Client Satisfaction, Caribbean’ and ‘International Tourism Board Providing the Best Travel Advisor Support’. In the 17-year history of these awards, it is the 11th time Jamaica has earned the international honour, which is the top distinction.
“We are very grateful to receive multiple awards including the recognition of International Tourism Board Providing the Best Travel Advisor Support, which no other destination has won so many times,” said Director of Tourism, Donovan White. “Our tourist board works very hard to provide the highest level of support to our valued travel trade partners, as well as top tier service to all travellers visiting the destination, so receiving this acknowledgement by TravelAge West and its advisor readers is truly a proud moment for us.”
Travel advisor professionals throughout 15 western states and readers of TravelAge West voted on the best-of-the-best from a list of Editor’s Pick award recipients. The winners were chosen after careful review by Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Kenneth Shapiro and the editorial team of TravelAge West. Review methods included product analysis, on-site visits, a survey of a select group of industry advisors and industry experts, and online research.
