At this year's regional World Travel Awards, Abu Dhabi has been recognised as the 'Middle East's Leading Destination' edging out rival and past winner Dubai for the honours.
In addition to leading destination, Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority was also awarded the 'Middle East's Leading Tourist Board'.
The Emirate did well in other categories of this year's World Travel Awards Middle East Ceremony, with its national airline Etihad Airways also taking out a raft of awards including the 'Middle East's Leading Airline', 'Middle East's Leading Airline Economy Class', and even 'Middle East's Leading Airline First Class'.
"The Middle East is a shining example to the international industry, even in the challenging times that this region and destinations worldwide have been experiencing in the past two years," said Graham E. Cooke, World Travel Awards Founder and President.
This is the first time a destination other than Dubai has been awarded the award for Leading Destination in the Middle East region, says the World Travel Award organisers.
