SIXT Earns Two Travel Industry Honors from Frequent Traveler Awards and Condé Nast Traveler

Recognition comes as SIXT continues to expand its U.S. presence and build momentum with travelers

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, UNITED STATES, October 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SIXT USA, a subsidiary of Sixt SE – a leader in premium mobility services – has earned two new industry accolades that reflect its commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience, with recognition in the Frequent Traveler Awards and Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.

SIXT was named “Best Car Rental & Mobility Innovation” company at the 2026 Frequent Traveler Awards, marking the second consecutive year the company has won in this category. The Frequent Traveler Awards recognize excellence across the travel industry, including airlines, hotels, rental cars and cruise lines, with winners determined by the votes of members of frequent traveler programs around the world. SIXT received its award on October 7 at Loyalty Summit Americas in Chicago.

SIXT ranked No. 2 among 10 car rental brands in the 2026 Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards. The awards recognize the best travel experiences around the world, based on ratings from the publication’s readers. For the 2026 awards, Condé Nast Traveler received more than 798,867 survey responses from readers across the United States, who rated their travel experiences across the globe.

Tom Kennedy, President, SIXT North America: “These recognitions reflect the excitement our team members create for our customers every day. From reservation to return, they bring the SIXT experience to life with their energy, pride and commitment. We are incredibly proud of the care they put into their work, and that care is what sets SIXT apart. These honors belong to them, and we are grateful for all they do.”

The recognition comes as SIXT continues to expand its U.S. presence and build momentum with travelers. The company recently opened its 58th U.S. airport location, and its SIXT ONE rewards program surpassed 1 million U.S. members just 10 months after launch, signaling strong demand for a more premium and rewarding car rental experience.

SIXT ONE combines member-exclusive rates, rewards points, status benefits, vehicle upgrades and digital convenience. Customers who download the SIXT app, enroll in SIXT ONE and book directly with SIXT can unlock benefits throughout their rental journey, including instant savings of up to 20%, depending on status tier, the ability to skip the counter, accelerated points earning, complimentary upgrades and redeemable rewards on qualifying rentals.

The latest honors add to a growing list of recognition for SIXT from travelers. In 2025, SIXT was named the #1 Rental Car Company in America in the 2025 USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards and ranked No. 2 among Travel + Leisure Readers’ 5 Favorite Car Rental Companies for two consecutive years (2024 and 2025).

Over the past 15 years, the United States has become SIXT’s most important growth market. Today, the company operates more than 130 rental branches across 28 states, including 58 major airport locations nationwide. With operations established in Canada since 2022, SIXT has extended its North American footprint, creating additional opportunities for growth and synergies across the region.
