BMW Wins GlobeRunner Award for Best Automotive Manufacturer

More than 110,000 readers of Frequent Business Traveler have voted BMW the “Best Car Manufacturer in the World” making BMW a GlobeRunner award winner for the second year in a row.

Each year GlobeRunner awards are bestowed upon the best hotels, airlines, restaurants, car rental agencies, luggage makers, travel sites and automobile manufacturers.

Joining BMW in the winners’ circle was Hilton Hotels & Resorts, who won in all five world-region categories. Frequent Business Traveler readers also voted American Airlines as the Best Airline in the Americas, Singapore Airlines won for the Asia/Pacific region, and Lufthansa won for Best First Class Lounge and Best Frequent-Flyer Program. If you’re wondering who has the best airline food and wine, Emirates Airways won that category.

Here’s why this is an important win for BMW, as said by Jonathan Spira, editorial director of Frequent Business Traveler: “Our readers’ very selective preferences combined with their extensive patronage of hotels, airlines, and everything travel-related make their votes particularly meaningful.”

So if you want to know what’s good in the world of travel, get your recommendations from Frequent Business Traveler readers — they know what they’re talking about.
