TripAdvisor® announces the winners of its third annual Travelers' Choice Awards for Travel Favorites, highlighting the top brands that travelers around the world prefer for their trips.

"We are pleased to announce the brands that travelers voted their Travelers Choice Favorites," says Barbara Messing, chief marketing officer for TripAdvisor. "Travelers packing their suitcases can't go wrong with these travel picks from our savvy community."
"It is a great honor that TripAdvisor travelers selected PURELL Advanced as their favorite hand sanitizer for the second consecutive year," says Kathleen Leigh, marketing director, PURELL Consumer. "We all have those everyday PURELL moments, when soap and water are unavailable and we need to clean our hands, from the menu we touched, the subway railing or from our own coughs and sneezes. That is why people love PURELL hand sanitizer gel and the newly launched PURELL wipes, because they kill the germs that make us sick and are perfect essentials on the go."
