Website AirlineRatings.com compiled world airlines rating 2019. The criteria used for the assessment include: passenger reviews, safety, profitability, innovation, age of the aircraft fleet, etc. It is interesting that all the airlines that entered the top 10 this year are based on 2 continents - in Asia and Australia

10. Japan Airlines

One of the best airlines in the world was the Japanese Japan Airlines, or, in short, JAL. The Tokyo-based company is Japan's flagship carrier. JAL is currently operating a 164 aircraft Boeing fleet and has ordered 31 more A350 aircraft in addition to the Mitsubishi MRJ90 series.

9. Cathay Pacific Airways

This airline, based in Hong Kong, has successfully maintained its position in the top ten airlines in 2019. She is praised for the smiling and helpful staff, impeccable cleanliness in the salons, good food, comfortable chairs and numerous entertainments. During the flight they offer alcoholic drinks - a glass of red or white wine.

8. EVA Air

Taiwan Airlines takes eighth place in the “air sampling” thanks to the most modern fleet of aircraft, new routes and innovations such as premium economy (cheaper than business class and more comfortable than economy class).

Polite and caring stewardesses, cute interior design, a wide range of entertainments (films, music, games, etc.) make traveling with EVA Air airplanes pleasant and interesting.

7. All Nippon Airways

The seventh place among the best airlines in the world in 2019 went to the Japanese air carrier with the largest fleet of aircraft in the country. AirlineRatings experts praised ANA for its attention to the smallest details that make the journey more enjoyable and convenient for customers.

6. Emirates

This world-class Arab airline was one of the pioneers in introducing wireless infotainment systems (IFE) and one of the first to install IFE in economy class cabins. Russian and foreign passengers praise Emirates for their caring and attentive service during the flight, a clean and comfortable cabin and a delicious menu. For an additional fee, you can pre-order (online on the airline’s website) to order an individual menu.

Emirates has been rated by the top airline in the Middle East and Africa.

5. Virgin Australia

Australia's second largest airline is famous for its attentive and smiling staff and well-equipped showrooms. And this year she received the first prize for the best crew from AirlineRatings. However, some passengers in the reviews complain that the menu on board is tasty, but rather meager, as well as a set of in-flight entertainment.

4. Qatar Airways

This airline received top marks for the best catering and superior business class service. Experts even tested the food offered in all three classes, and rated it as extremely delicious. “Food on Qatar Airways leaves nothing to chance and is completely exceptional even in the economy class,” said AirlineRatings chief editor Jeffrey Thomas.

3. Qantas

On the third line in the top airlines of the world in 2019 is the largest airline of the smallest mainland in the world. Qantas currently plans to launch non-stop flights between London and Sydney. This will happen over the next 5 years.

The Australian airline operates a fleet of 130 aircraft, including 12 Airbus A380. He won the nominations for "Best domestic airline service" and "Best waiting rooms."

2. Air New Zealand

For five years, this New Zealand air carrier was at the top of the list of the best airlines in the world. But in 2019, this title was transferred to Singapore Airlines. And Air New Zealand will have to be content with the title of the best airline in the Pacific.

1. Singapore Airlines

Singapore Airlines is the best airline in the world in 2019 in the AirlineRatings ranking.

The victory of the Singapore airline put an end to the five-year dominance of Air New Zealand, which ranked second in the top 10 airlines in the world in 2019.

Airline Ratings praised Singapore Airlines for its industry-leading level of service and for the use of new types of aircraft such as the Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner and Airbus A350-900 ULR. Luxurious and comfortable luxury seats in the Airbus A380, comparable in terms of convenience to a hotel room, received special praise.

In addition, the airline received accolades for operational safety and the resumption of non-stop flights between Singapore and New York - the longest regular passenger flight in the world.

Safety in flight is one of the main criteria for choosing an air carrier. To give you a complete picture of the safest airlines in the world, we have compiled a complete table-rating of airlines in the world in 2019. It's nice that the Russian Aeroflot was among the first.

Not a single airline from Europe and North America was in the top ten. In 2019, Aeroflot was recognized as the safest airline in Russia. The German airline Lufthansa was awarded the "excellent" rating for the comfort of long-distance flights, and the Hungarian Wiz was named one of the best low cost airlines.
