Have you ever fly on an airplane? Can you remember your 1st day on a plane? Last week I had my first flight experience from Sri Lankan to London by Qatar airways with my family. So on my trip, I’m stunned with their outstanding service. The airplane is wide, clean and very comfortable, the boarding crew is so adorable and with all inside the flight. In-flight movies are captivating. I like that kids had priority in choosing their food and were served first. So after my travel, I wanted to find out which are the world’s Top 10 Airlines of 2019.
After my research I found out about Skytrax World Airline Awards, it was held on Tuesday 18th June 2019 at the Paris Air Show. Every year Skytrax was organized annual global passenger satisfaction survey done by a lot of customers, and they nominated an airline, by ranking their satisfaction considering cabin service, ground airport experience and onboard experience (such as seat comfort, cabin comfort, amenities, quality of meals staff attitudes, boarding assistance and meal service efficiency). Over 300 airlines have participated in this competition, and there were 21 million eligible survey entries counted in the final result.
