World Ranking - List of the top 10 best airline ratings in the world the latest in 2019 has been released. As reported by WorldAirlineAwards.com, it was said that this list was chosen by travelers from all over the world. The results have been announced by the World Airline Awards at the Paris Air Show which takes place on Tuesday, June 18, 2019 at the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace du Bourget. The event was attended by leaders and management of leading airlines from all over the world.
There are several main factors which are the basis for this ranking. Among them are on the basis of consideration of operational safety factors, passenger satisfaction reviews, profitability, investment ratings, fleet age, and offers for superior services such as premium economy class for long-haul flights, choice of seating facilities in each class, to catering services.
Singapore Airlines, which ranked first last year, must now give up its royal throne to Qatar Airways. Now Singapore Airlines has dropped to 2nd place, while Qatar Airways, which was in 4th place last year, jumped to the top spot.
