virgin atlantic announces 1st tourist awards
Last night, Sir Richard Branson hosted the inaugural I ♥ DXB awards at Bussola, at the new Westin Mina Seyahi Beach Resort and Marina to celebrate the very best of the city as voted for by Virgin Atlantic passengers travelling on the London to Dubai route.
The awards celebrated a successful year of Virgin Atlantic’s route-dedicated inflight magazine, DXB. This is the world’s first ever city-specific magazine, produced by HOT Media Publishing, who set out to revolutionise inflight media with the travel-sized guide to Dubai, which has proved an invaluable resource for tourists.
Awards were given in 8 categories based on visitor experiences which DXB-reading Virgin Atlantic passengers voted on, ranging from dining at the finest restaurants and enjoying al fresco entertainment, through to the things that make Dubai such a unique city - everything from architectural wonders to outstanding shopping.
