As we embark further into the new year, voting is underway for the annual GT Tested Reader Survey awards.
LAST MONTH WE KICKED OFF VOTING for our annual GT Tested Reader Survey awards while wrapping up voting for our Leisure Lifestyle Awards. We asked our trusted Globility Board to share their thoughts on voting with us to encourage others to vote, either online or via the ballot printed on one of the following pages. The Globility Board is a vetted group of well-traveled subscribers serving as a sounding board for the magazine, offering insights into their travel habits and much more. In January they shared their thoughts on hotels, resorts and cruise lines; why they vote; and what the surveys mean to them.
This month we went back to those same intrepid travelers to learn what makes them vote for their favorite airlines and destinations. As we are also celebrating our milestone 15th anniversary this month, we asked them to share what 15 years means to them as readers, what they enjoyed or disliked during their time as a subscriber and what they hope to see in the future.
Read on as a few members share their thoughts.
For airlines, I vote based on what I like getting out of the total flight experience from curbside to curbside. I think there’s room for a variety of viewpoints on best airline, depending on what a person wants. Probably the biggest differential is how a person wants the soft product service executed. I, for one, prefer not to be hovered over, whether it’s in a restaurant or lounge or airplane. I like the flight attendants to notice things but not to ask the obvious. An anecdote: Last month in the Delta Sky Club Salt Lake City, there were some staff circulating who kept asking if I needed anything, which felt a bit annoying after the first time. In a lounge environment, where it’s basically self-serve, staff should be able to recognize a person looking around for something or trying to get staff attention and otherwise leave them alone.
