easyJet scoops top awards at ISPY

By Charlotte Turner |

In what was an ambitious Oscars awards/Gala dinner, ISPY2015 finished with a bang tonight, crowning easyJet winners of the top two awards of the night; Inflight Sales People of the Year (Team Award) and Inflight Sales Person of the Year.

easyJet reclaimed its Sales Person of the Year title, this time with Henry Vince in the spotlight while colleagues Kendal Evans & Andrew Todd took the team award.

The Aer Lingus Team.

But not all the glory was theirs, as Airline of the Year was won by the well-deserving Aer Lingus who also won the Dragon’s Den prize. TRBusiness witnessed Airline of the Year presentations from the four shortlisted airlines on Tuesday.

Unexpectedly, an award was presented for ISPY2015 Fellowship; the first of its kind. This was awarded to Rakhita Jayawardenena [pictured left], a much beloved industry veteran.

See all the results below.
