Now in its 33rd year, World Travel Awards recognises organisations and destinations across aviation, hospitality, tourism, travel services, cruise and visitor experiences. The regional ceremony provides a snapshot of an industry that continues to evolve through new openings, stronger destination identities, more specialised guest experiences and increasing attention to sustainability, design and service.
For travellers and the trade, the nominations also provide a useful guide to the companies shaping tourism across Asia, Oceania and the Indian Ocean. From major airlines and tourism boards to private-island resorts, specialist tour operators and airport services, the 2026 field reflects the breadth of the modern visitor journey.
