The World's Top

Airlines in 2014
Overview of Report Released by Skytrax

The annual World Airlines Award announcement
came at the Farnborough International Air Show in
the UK for the year 2014.
The awards are based on research by Skytrax.




Skytrax World Airline Rating was introduced in 1999
and is the leading, global Airline Rating system
classifying airlines by the Quality of front-line
product and staff service standards.



The Skytrax is non-profit and unbiased organization,
and passengers of any airline are able to cast their
vote.


The SMH stated that the Skytrax Awards has taken the
views from nearly 19 million airline travelers from
160 nations globally to put together the ranking
results.



Cathay Pacific attained the top position after beating
last year topper Emirates airline.



Cathay Pacific has become the first airline who secured
the winner title four times in 2003, 2005 and 2009
and then 2014.



Australian airline Qantas slipped out of the top 10 for
the second time, coming in at number 11. Last year
Qantas ranked 10th, and its highest position was in
2008 when it was named third in the world.



The set back in Qantas Airline is due to the last year
bad experience of turning back of the flight when a
water pipe leaked from the deck of a plane in the
flight of Los Angeles to Melbourne.



Malaysian Airline, formerly included in top 10 airlines
for
three various times, suffered from quick reduction in
ranking thats 18th now.



The set back in Qantas Airline is due to the issue of
plane MH370 vanishing earlier in this year.
