Global Traveler Magazine Announces The Results of the 2004 “Wines on the Wing” Business Class Wine Survey
New York, June 20, 2004 –Global Traveler, the only United States–based magazine written for the frequent-traveling executive, conducted its annual “Wines on the Wing” survey of wines served in international airlines’ business-class cabins at the Millennium Broadway Hotel New York last month. The results are published in Global Traveler’s June/July issue.
A carefully selected panel of world-renowned wine judges and connoisseurs were gathered for the tasting in which more than 25 international carriers participated. Submissions were accepted in three categories: White, Red and Sparkling wines. Care was taken to ensure that the wines set for the survey matched exactly to those served onboard business classes around the world.
“This is just another aspect of what makes an airline experience exceptional,” said Francis X. Gallagher, Publisher of Global Traveler. “We make sure that all vintages match exactly to those served on board … all through the watchful eye of our wine expert, Eunice Fried.”
