KHM Travel Group Announces the 2017 Crystal Award Winners
Written by: Guest on February 02, 2018
KHM Travel Group’s annual Crystal Awards recognize and celebrate our top-producing travel agents. The winners were first announced during Wednesday’s Crystal Awards Ceremony on board Royal Caribbean’s Independence of the Seas.
The theme of this year’s Crystal Conference and Awards was “The Value of You.” Looking at the value that you bring your clients and the value that both KHM Travel Group and our industry partners bring to all of our agents, it’s clear that our success in 2017 was truly a combined effort. Together we look forward to another record-breaking year of achievements, happiness, and many new adventures.
