Congratulations 2022 Crystal Award Winners

KHM Travel Group’s annual Crystal Awards recognize and celebrate our travel agents in a variety of categories. These winners were announced on Monday, February 26 during our Crystal Awards Ceremony on the beautiful Harmony of the Seas.

The theme of this year’s Crystal Conference is Expanding Horizons. It speaks to the ability of travel professionals to help others have vacation experiences that exceed all their expectations. It’s also about each agent expanding their own horizons and taking their businesses beyond what they could have imagined.

We’re so proud of the following award winners for their achievements in the areas of sales, growth, and commitment to KHM Travel Group’s Core Values.

Congratulations to our 2022 Crystal Award winners and thank you to all of our independent travel agents and supplier partners for your continued support!
