October 18: Qatar Airways has won 'Custom Redesign of the Year' at Folio’s Eddie & Ozzie Awards for its in-flight magazine, Oryx. Created by leading global publisher Ink, the magazine redesign was launched on board Qatar Airways in January 2017, the airlines said in a statement.

Accrding to Qatar Airways, the Eddie & Ozzie Awards has become one of the most comprehensive magazine media award programmes, with hundreds of highly-competitive entries each year celebrating outstanding editorial and design content in both print and digital platforms.

I am delighted that the new design of Oryx magazine has been recognised at the Eddie & Ozzie awards,” the statement quoted Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Akbar Al Baker as saying.

“We are committed to constantly renewing and refreshing our on-board entertainment for our passengers, and delivering an enhanced magazine product that is full of relevant information and content is integral to that strategy. The feedback we have received from our passengers since the redesign of Oryx magazine in January 2017 has been incredibly positive, and winning this award confirms that the publishing industry also recognises this great achievement,” he added.

Ink’s Joint Chief Executive Officer Michael Keating, added, "We are thrilled to have received such a prestigious international media award in New York and to be recognised for Oryx magazine so soon after its launch. With the whole team at Qatar Airways, we have quickly forged a very successful partnership and created a beautifully crafted publication that is highly regarded by their 32 million annual passengers. We look forward to many more successful years together.”

In addition to its award-winning magazine, Qatar Airways said it offers passengers up to 4,000 options on its Oryx One entertainment platform including the latest blockbusters, family movies, more than 1,500 episodes of TV comedy and drama, documentaries and audio.

This latest accolade comes on the back of a raft of recent awards won by Qatar Airways, which was recently recognised for 'Best Cabin Service' and 'Best Food and Beverage' at the 2017 APEX Passenger Choice Awards, as well as being named 'Best Airline,' 'Best Middle Eastern Airline,' 'Best Long Haul Airline' and 'Best Business Class,' at the 2017 Business Traveller Awards.
