Unleashing the best airline, safest, and the cheapest to use in 2019

Are you planning to fly to another destination? Do you know the safest airline to use for your journey
or safari? Qantas has been nominated the world’s safest airline for 2019 by AirlineRatings.com, the world’s only safety, and product rating website.

Qantas is the flag carrier of Australia and its largest airline by fleet size, international flights and international destinations. It is the third oldest airline in the world, after KLM and Avianca having been founded in November 1920.

 AirlineRatings.com also announced its Top Twenty safest airlines and ten safest low-cost airlines for 2019 from the 405 it monitors. AirlineRatings.com takes a lot into consideration while making its decisions. AirlineRatings.com considers a comprehensive range of factors including the audits from aviation’s governing and industry bodies; government audits; airline’s crash and serious incident record; profitability, industry-leading safety initiatives, and fleet age.

In selecting Qantas as the world’s safest airline for 2019, AirlineRatings.com editors noted that over its 98-year history the world’s oldest continuously operating airline has amassed an amazing record of firsts in operations and safety and is now accepted as the industry’s most experienced airline.

The Australian airline has been a leader in the development of: Future Air Navigation System; the flight data recorder to monitor plane and later crew performance; automatic landings using Global Navigation Satellite System as well as precision approaches around mountains in cloud using RNP.

 Qantas was the lead airline with real-time monitoring of its engines across its fleet using satellite communications, which has enabled the airline to detect problems before they become a major safety issue.

 The AirlineRatings.com Top Twenty safest airlines have always been at the forefront of safety innovation, launching of new aircraft and they have become a byword for excellence.  

The Top 20 safest Airlines for 2019 Air New Zealand, Alaska Airlines, All Nippon Airways, American Airlines, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways, Emirates, EVA Air, Finnair, Hawaiian Airlines, KLM, Lufthansa, Qantas, Qatar, Scandinavian Airline System, Singapore Airlines, Swiss, and United Airlines, and the Virgin group of airlines (Atlantic and Australia). According to AirlineRatings.com Editor-in-Chief Geoffrey Thomas, these airlines are standouts in the industry and are at the forefront of safety, innovation, and launching of new aircraft.  

Top 10 safest low-cost Airlines for 2019
Responding to the public interest, the AirlineRatings.com editors also identified their Top 10 safest low-cost airlines. These are listed in alphabetical order: Flybe, Frontier, HK Express, Jetblue, Jetstar Australia / Asia, Thomas Cook, Volaris, Vueling, Westjet and Wizz.

Unlike a number of low-cost carriers, these airlines have all passed the stringent International Air Transport Association Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) and have excellent safety records. To arrive at its Top Twenty, AirlineRatings.com considers the most important factors for safety. These include audits from aviation’s governing bodies and lead associations; government audits; airline’s crash and serious incident record; and the fleet age. Mr Thomas said the site only looked at serious incidents in making its determinations.

 “All airlines have incidents every day and many are aircraft manufacture issues, not airline operational problems,’ he said. “It is the way the flight crew handles incidents that determines a good airline from an unsafe one. So just lumping all incidents together is very misleading.”

“And some countries incident reporting systems are weak further complicating matters.” AirlineRatings.com also announced its lowest ranked (one and two stars) airlines which are: Ariana Afghan Airlines, Bluewing Airlines, Kam Air, and Trigana Air Service.

AirlineRatings was launched in June 2013 and rates the safety and in-flight product of 405 airlines using its unique seven-star rating system. It has been used by millions of passengers from 232 countries and has become the industry standard for safety and product rating. The editorial team is one of the world’s most experienced with almost 50 international and national awards. They have also authored or co-authored more than 28 industry books.
