Translink Press Release - Award Hat Trick for Ulsterbus Tours
Award Hat Trick for Ulsterbus Tours
29 October 2003
Translink’s Ulsterbus Tours has scored an awards hat trick – yet again eclipsing competition from across the UK, to take the top Coach Tour Operator title in the 2003 Northern Ireland Travel and Tourism Awards.
It is the third award won by Ulsterbus Tours this year, joining a Coach Mark Certificate of Excellence and a commendation from the 2003 British Coach Awards, in the company’s burgeoning trophy case.
“It has been an excellent year for Ulsterbus tours, but this latest award is really the icing on the cake,” explained David Leathem, Translink’s Travel Centre Manager.
“This award is particularly significant because over 400 local Travel Agents voted for Ulsterbus Tours over competitors from Northern Ireland and across the UK, so we really are the first stop for Northern Ireland Travel Agents!” he concluded.
