AIDA wins prestigious Pegasus Award
German consumers have voted the cruise line AIDA Cruises Most Trusted Brand 2015. This is the result of a representative survey conducted by Reader's Digest, in which respondents voted AIDA in first place without any prompting in the Cruises category. This is the fifth time in a row that AIDA has won the Pegasus Award.
"The award is both a confirmation and a source of motivation. It represents the high standards we set ourselves when it comes to meeting and even exceeding the expectations which our guests have of us and their vacation," states Felix Eichhorn, President of AIDA Cruises.
For 15 years now, Reader's Digest Magazine has been bestowing its coveted award to honor those brands most trusted by consumers. The award is based on the annual "Trusted Brands" brand study, in which Reader's Digest surveys 15,000 consumers in seven European countries to find out which brands they most trust.
