Emirates has come out on top as the ‘World’s Best Airline’ among 90 global carriers in a recent comprehensive and methodological study by Telegraph Travel. The detailed ranking and ratings were calculated from more than 30 criteria such as punctuality, baggage allowance, route network, quality of home airport, age of fleet, value of rewards programme and tastiness of in-flight meals, while the results were calculated referencing data from more than 18 independent and international awards, readers polls, ratings websites and expert reviews. Described as a ‘worthy winner,’ the study announced that Emirates ‘ticks nearly every box, from baggage allowance to punctuality.
It is the airline that operates the largest number of double-decker Airbus A380s, the jet that passengers love best – because it offers the most space and legroom in all cabins, including economy.’ The article adds ‘Premium economy on its A380s is the best in the sky.
