Branson Wins Travel Award
By Linda Tancs
Sir Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin empire, has been tapped by the U.S. Travel Industry Association to receive its first-ever Steve Fossett Innovation Award. Named for adventurer and travel pioneer Steve Fossett, the award recognizes Branson for his ground-breaking contributions to the travel industry. It’s no doubt appropriate that Branson take first honors, considering his long and, at times, competitive relationship with Fossett, who disappeared in his plane somewhere over the Nevada desert last September. So who would you nominate for future awards? Cast your votes now.
