Best Western International, the World’s Largest Hotel Chain®, has been honored with the coveted AAA “Travel Partner of the Year” award in addition to two other honors in the hotel category during the organization’s recent 2009 Preferred Partner Awards Ceremony.
This is the second consecutive year that Best Western has won the Partner of the Year award from AAA, the nation's largest leisure travel organization. This year, Best Western was also awarded Best in Marketing and Best in Sales awards in the hotels category.
"To be recognized for setting the standard for AAA's preferred hotel partners is a tremendous honor," said Dorothy Dowling, senior vice president of marketing and sales for Best Western International. "We value our long-term partnership with AAA, and will continue to reward their members with the outstanding service and value they've come to expect from Best Western."
"We are pleased to present Best Western with the Partner of the Year and Sales and Marketing awards," said Glen MacDonell, director, AAA Travel Services. "AAA is committed to providing our members with exceptional travel experiences and outstanding customer service. Partners like Best Western enable us to consistently deliver on that promise."
Winners were chosen based upon a survey of the association's club travel agency executives, who were asked to rate AAA's 40 preferred travel partners in five categories: marketing, service, product, sales support and technology.
