The branch based in Dubai, and run by Gargash Enterprises, picked up the gong after a poll of Travel + Leisure readers picked them over all the other firms. The annual awards are polled by the public where they get to vote on the best in each category like best hotel, best resort or best Asian island. For the 2009 awards there were a total of 300,000 people that took part in the voting, one of the largest responses to date. The awards are seen in the travel industry as one of the best going and most companies strive to make it into the lights. Sixt continues to expand in the Middle East and have recently opened up a whole host of new branches across the area. The large Abu Dhabi International Airport is the latest addition where you can pick up a Sixt car at great low prices. The firm has also been on the forefront of cutting edge technology.

Their iPhone application, iSixt, is proving a hit with their customers as people strive to make life easier with just the touch of a button. All details can be stored of the customers preferences, like which car and what location, all repeat customers have to enter is the dates and theey are booked.
