(PRWeb) January 21, 2007 -- Global Traveler is pleased to announce that Continental Airlines Presidents Club has won the GT Tested Award for Best Airport Lounges. Continental was awarded this honor by Global Traveler readers who participated in a survey that ran in the magazine from February 2006 to August 2006.
Continental Airlines' Presidents Club will be recognized at an awards luncheon on January 23, 2007 at the Jumeirah Essex House in New York City. Francis X. Gallagher, publisher and CEO of Global Traveler, will honor the winners at the gala ceremony, accompanied by Cynthia Nixon, star of Sex and the City. Nixon will speak to attendees on behalf of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
"The awards luncheon is a celebration of the accomplishments of all our award winners," Gallagher said. "Our readers have recognized them as the cream of the crop; however, this luncheon also reminds all of us that it's time to give back. By benefiting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, we have the opportunity to help and celebrate personal good fortune by helping those hindered by misfortune. However, I do want to congratulate all of our winners for their achievements in the world of travel and the work they do that puts them a step ahead of the competition."
"We're proud of the accolade from the readers of Global Traveler, as they recognize the high quality amenities and accommodations we offer our global customers in 27 worldwide clubs. Last year, we set the record for visits in the Presidents Club and we expanded several clubs to accommodate the increase in visits and the demand for new memberships," said Kevin McKenna, managing director for Brand Marketing at Continental Airlines.
