World airline rating service SkyTrax named Qatar Airways as its 2015 Airline of the Year last week at the Le Bourget Paris Air Show.
Qatar Airways won the award for the 3rd time in its history.
The award is given annually to the airline that shows the most 5-star attributes in a given year, as chosen by millions of passengers in more than 160 countries around the world through a year-long poll.
Qatar calls winning the award “a testament to the commitment and dedication to service excellence and a high-quality travel experience for all passengers that fly with Qatar Airways. It is a reflection of the 5-star calibre service that the Qatar Airways is renowned for.”
Speaking to the media, Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker said “I am honored to lead an airline that has paved such an accomplished path to excellence and innovation, demonstrating the team’s unwavering pride in their work and the experience provided to each of our passengers.”

Al Baker stressed passengers being “at the heart of everything we do at Qatar Airways and we are very proud to be recognised by them and to receive these three SkyTrax awards.
“Qatar Airways strives to offer the best travel experience for its guests across our entire global network of 147 destinations, with a commitment to providing quality services to each and every one of our passengers,” he said.
Qatar would not leave the annual SkyTrax World Airline Awards with just the Airline of the Year award. Qatar Airways also won the “Best Airlines Business Class Seat” and “Best Airlines in the Middle East” award for a record eighth time.

Good for them,please take note BA.
ReplyDeleteTake note of what John? The Skytrax award goes to the top voted airlines and airports, not aircraft manufacturers. Boeing, Airbus nor the engineering firms that design and construct airports have no control over the outcome. It's up to the operator. Understand?
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't talking about Boeing. Understand?
DeleteI thought he was referring to British Airline, not Boeing.
ReplyDeleteFlew on their A350 and B787 in business some time ago and nah, the service is as inconsistent as always. I won't fly them again unless no other option.
ReplyDeleteI was referring to British Airways and their not so good customer ratings. If you look at the Skytrak website,you will see that BA didn't even come in the top 10 for good customer service. This article was about Qatars achievement in customer relations.

ReplyDeleteJohn my apologies. The stock market ticker symbol for Boeing is BA and I just thought that you meant Boeing, not British Airways. Good day.
DeleteApologies not required, easy to misunderstand-What a nice man!
