    Big Ben, London

    The Best UK Train Company award goes to a reliable company, rarely delayed, offers cheap prices and good customer services!
    First Trains
    Wessex Trains
    Central Trains
    Virgin Trains

    Best UK Bus Company
    National Express
    Stagecoach
    Diamond Coaches
    Eurolines
    Wallace Arnold

    Airline Company
    Here's the all important one, each airline will get an individual reason for why they have been nominated

    Thomas Cook Airlines UK
    I am not being biased... the reason I like Thomas Cook so much is because they offer excellent customer services, amazingly good punctuality, the highest quality in comfort, on their new long-haul 757's they offer the second most legroom for an airline company, and overall, I find Thomas Cook Airlines to be a fantastic airline company who deserve much credit.

    First Choice Airlines
    Basically I find First Choice Airlines the same as Thomas Cook, their punctuality is outstanding, their customer services are brilliant, the only thing First Choice really lack is an informative website

    bmi British Midland
    Along with their low-cost subsidiary bmiBaby, I believe bmi are a fantastic company as a whole. They have competitive prices, excellent business class, comfortable exonomy class, they get you from A to B on-time and in style (that part does not apply for bmiBaby), and bmi are the pride of the UK in terms of Scheduled Airliners

    Emirates
    One word: quality

    Malaysia Airlines
    Malaysia Airlines are most likely the best scheduled airliner in the world, the punctuality is unique, the service offered is supreme, the staff are not only EXTREMELY fanciable, they are excellently presented and ALWAYS wear a smile. The safety of Malaysia Airlines has to be one of the best of all the WorldWide airliners, they are... fantastic!

    Best Airport
    The Best Airport award goes to one where there are things to do in a delay, to one where safety is considered seriously (which eliminated Palma Mallorca), to an airport where the customer is Number 1, and every slight thing is given attention, and to an airport where comfort is an extremely virtue.
    London Gatwick International Airport, UK
    Manchester International Airport, UK
    Miami International Airport, USA
    Sydney Kingston International Airport, Australia
    Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Airport, Canary Is., Spain

                      Chris Burns,

                      Care to explain how NW qualifies as the best airline in the world?

                      Their product (economy or business)?
                      Their overall service?
                      Their food (or lack thereof)?
                      Please explain your self.

                      And "My family works there" is not a valid reason.

                            Well THAT was rather unseccessful, I think it's evident why I didnt do a nominations round (Southwest Airlines... best in the World?!?!?)\
