A double win for LIFT at the 2026 World Luxury Awards

LIFT has received two accolades at the 2026 World Luxury Travel Awards, being named Best Cabin Crew in South Africa and Best Domestic Airline in Africa.
The recognition is a proud moment for LIFT and its people, particularly the crew, both on the ground and in the air, who bring the brand to life every day. From the welcome onboard to the care shown throughout a journey, it is the people behind the experience who help make flying with LIFT feel different.

The World Luxury Travel Awards winners are voted by the public and are awarded to travel establishments across a range of diverse categories. The awards are presented on a country, regional, continental and global basis.
Haydn Halim-Henning, Brand Manager at LIFT, says the awards are a celebration of the team and the elevated experience they create for passengers.

“We’re incredibly proud of these two awards, especially because they recognise both our people and what we offer our passengers. Our crew bring so much warmth and personality to every flight, and they’re a big part of what makes LIFT special. Every person on our team plays a role in creating an experience that feels welcoming and distinctly LIFT. It’s wonderful to see their efforts recognised, and we’re grateful to everyone who continues to support us.”
For LIFT, the double win is another reason to celebrate the people who make every journey possible and the role the airline plays in bringing South Africans closer to the people and places that matter.
