Airline managers can nominate up to five airports whose marketing efforts over the past 12 months (since World Routes in Beijing) have made a real impact on their future network development plans. All airlines should be considering the efficient and useful marketing activities of any airport on their network, by geographical region, irrespective of airport size.
The following criteria can be used as a guideline to airlines wishing to place their vote:

The overall winners from regional heats held in the Americas (Edmonton), Asia (Auckland), Europe (Hamburg) and Africa (Entebbe) will be automatically shortlisted. Therefore, please do not nominate these airports as they will automatically be on the final shortlist together with 4 other airports within their regional category. Please note: Middle East airports fall into the Asia category and CIS airports fall into Europe.
