Heathrow has launched its annual Heathrow Product Travel Awards in search of the most popular travel accessories of 2010.

Launched to highlight the products that make passengers’ journey better and which are available at Heathrow, the annual awards feature more than 140 items shortlisted by a panel of senior industry experts. Products include iPods, digital cameras, handbags, books and perfume.

People can vote for their travel must-haves at www.heathrowairport.com/vote. Voting will take place during September, and the winners will be announced in early October.

Every person who votes in this year’s Heathrow Travel Product Awards will automatically be entered into an exclusive prize draw with a chance to win a selection of the winning products up to the value of £5,000.

Last year the first Heathrow Travel Product Awards drew more than 23,000 votes with the winning products recognised and promoted in-store.

Malcolm Robertson, communications director at Heathrow, said: “We all have a favourite travel accessory, whether it’s a phone or a bag or simply a good book. Our awards help us better understand what our passengers think will make their journeys better, and we look forward to hearing what they have to say this year.”
