A very important point that many modern tourists who decide to relax in remote places are interested in is the rating of the world's airlines in terms of safety and reliability. Despite this, according to numerous opinion polls conducted, domestic travelers, when choosing a carrier, tend to focus on other indicators. In this case, we are talking about the cost of the flight, which is the determining criterion for 36 percent of Russians. About a third of the citizens surveyed are guided by their own previous experience. As for the safety indicator, only 6 percent of domestic tourists pay attention to such a rating of world airlines in the first place. Approximately as much follow the advice of friends.
Principle of compilation
Using official information from recognized audit organizations, Australian Jeffrey Thomas has compiled a list of the safest air carriers. In the course of his research, he covered 425 companies located in all corners of the planet. To determine the quality, a scale of seven stars was used. The more reliable a particular carrier was, the more stars it received. When compiling the rating of world airlines, Thomas took into account two main indicators. They became the quality of the proposed product and the level of safety. It should be noted that the pleasant moment is that, according to studies, many carriers can boast a combination of a high level of reliability and service. As a result, more than fifty participants received seven stars in at least one indicator.
Rating Discovery
Among the best are not only those that are known throughout the world (Lufthansa, British Airlines). Despite the lack of universal recognition, carriers who are a real discovery for Western tourists were included in the ranking of airlines in the world of Jeffrey Thomas, because they are distinguished by a clear implementation of transportation schedules and a high level of service provided. For example, the researcher noted the representative of Belarus - the Belavia company. According to him, by purchasing tickets for a plane coming from London to Moscow, not every Englishman will pay attention to this carrier. On the other hand, this company is quite competitive and occupies a high position.
Best on the planet
The rating of the best airlines in the world was headed by Air New Zealand. In addition, ten more carriers, including Asiana Airlines, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Etihad and others, can boast the highest ratings on both criteria. As you can see, the list contains numerous representatives of the Australasian region. Despite this, it should be emphasized that this rating of world airlines in terms of safety, reliability and level of service is comprehensive, therefore, it can become a good helper for any tourist.
Russian airlines
If we talk about domestic representatives, then it is necessary to note the largest in our country. In particular, Aeroflot received the highest rating for safety and the "four" for the level of service. S7 was awarded six and four and a half stars for similar performance, respectively.
