Having attended many Frontier Awards over the years, I’d say this year’s event exceeded my expectations. The venue was fantastic, glamorous, a wonderful space that felt very special. The format of the awards meant that there was plenty of time to celebrate and enjoy the party... everything was brilliantly done. The entrance to the event, the red carpet, the interviews taking place, it felt special.

Winning an award at Frontier is very special for anyone. We're very fortunate that the judges have recognised the hard work that the team has done. I think the Frontier Awards are a great way to bring the industry together, we love bringing people together, and the networking is fantastic, so we love to be a part of it!

The even was great, high quality, professional and met expectations. It went smoothly, it was a perfect mix of fun and professional. There was enough time, before, during and after the event to network. Great atmosphere - and the right people there.

We were honored to be part of such a remarkable occasion. It was a privilege for us to support this year’s edition as a sponsor and to contribute, in our own way, to the success of an event that has become such an important tradition. The ceremony was beautifully organized, and the festive atmosphere that concluded the celebration perfectly reflected the spirit of the duty free.
