What's been happening at Huben
| TTG Top 20 Luxury Travel Agencies
Named Top Luxury High Street Agency
Huben Travel has been named Top Luxury High Street Agency in TTG's Top 20 Luxury Travel Agencies 2026, in association with Virgin Atlantic, with the category sponsored by Explora Journeys. The winners were revealed on 21 October at the Sheraton Grand London Park Lane, at TTG's new Black Book event.
Agencies are judged on customer service, commitment to responsible travel, business performance and workplace culture, and every shortlisted agency then meets the judges by video interview. We were one of nine agencies shortlisted in our category, so this one means a great deal to the whole team.
| Love Elmbridge Awards
Voted Best Cobham Independent
Local residents voted Huben Travel Best Cobham Independent in the Love Elmbridge Awards 2026. The awards are run by Elmbridge Borough Council to celebrate the borough's independent businesses, and thousands of residents cast their votes.
Being chosen by our neighbours is something special. Thank you to everyone who voted for us, and to everyone who pops into The Travel Lounge for a chat.

Ben named Luxury Travel Designer of the Year
Ben was named Luxury Travel Designer of the Year (in-store) at the TTG Luxury Travel Awards 2026, held at The Chancery Rosewood in London in association with Silversea. He was one of five finalists in the category.
It is lovely recognition of the care that goes into every holiday we plan, from the first conversation at The Travel Lounge to the moment our guests get home.
| Antigua and Barbuda Black Pineapple Awards
Top Producer at the Black Pineapple Awards, again
For the second year running, Huben Travel was named a Top Producer at the Antigua and Barbuda Black Pineapple Awards. The awards are run by the Antigua and Barbuda Ministry of Tourism and Tourism Authority to celebrate the travel professionals who do the most to promote the islands. The 2025 gala was held on 5 December at Sandals Grande Antigua.
We were first named a Top Producer at the very first Black Pineapple Awards, held in Antigua in December 2024, when around 100 top agents from the UK, Europe, North America, the Caribbean and Latin America were invited to celebrate.

The Travel Lounge opens in Cobham
We opened The Travel Lounge at 5 Church Street, Cobham, on 6 January 2025. Until then we met guests around our own kitchen table, so it was a big step to have a relaxed space where anyone can pop in and plan a holiday face to face. TTG covered the opening.

Where to next?
It starts with a chat. No forms or scripts, just a friendly conversation. Call, email or pop into the Lounge, and one of the team will take it from there.
