RICHMOND, Va., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- www.covingtontravel.com Covington
International Travel has been named one of the top 43 travel management
agencies in the United States by Business Travel News, a top publication of
the corporate travel industry. BTN's annual Business Travel Survey measures
the performance of suppliers in all corporate travel segments--mainly
airlines, hotels and car rental companies. 

In spite of an extremely challenging economic period last year for the travel
industry, Covington International Travel realized a high volume of
travel-related transactions to secure its spot on the prestigious list. By
focusing on the customer experience, Covington International Travel ranked #
32 in BTN's top U.S. agencies list. 

"As our customers' travel budgets are tightened, we are able to accommodate
their evolving travel needs without affecting the level of service and to
deliver the results that they expect," said Josee Covington, President, CEO
and founder. "Our customers are our priority, and we continue to work with
them through challenging times."  

To be included in BTN's survey travel agencies must book more than half of
their sales for business travel. Covington International Travel serves a
portfolio of corporate clients ranging from small local companies to Fortune
500 companies around the country.  

Based in Glen Allen, Covington International Travel is a woman-owned, full
service travel management company which has served customers' travel needs
since 1967. In addition to corporate travel, Covington provides meeting
management, incentive programs and vacation travel. Covington is also regarded
as one of the premier Virtuoso agencies in the U.S. for luxury vacation
travel.  

The staff includes 95 seasoned experts in three Virginia locations: Richmond,
suburban Richmond (Glen Allen) and Charlottesville.
