 LATEST Star Ranking news
What makes a 5 Star Airline ?
Are 6-Star Star Airlines taking off ?
SKYTRAX introduced the World Airline Star Rating® programme in 2000 - the Quality Analysis system that ranks airline product and service standards, based on professional evaluation by airline audit specialists.
World Airline Star Rating® provides the world airline industry (and it's customers) with a professional, unified Quality classification system that is now the internationally recognized
symbol of airline product and service standards.
World Airline Star Rating™ is the unique, specialist programme of SKYTRAX Quality assessment
- any third party use of the Airline Star Rating® details must make reference to the official SKYTRAX source of rating.
Every airline is ranked on the basis of the "delivered" front-line Product and Service quality - with Star Ranking
levels representing "international" product and service standards. (In the case of "domestic-only" airlines, Star Ranking reflects domestic product and service quality.)
Star Ratings reflects the reality of delivered product and service supplied to customers.
SKYTRAX do
NOT include commercial factors (eg fares, schedules, frequent flyer rewards etc) in an Airline Star Rating, because we are interested in the "front-line" product and service that customers receive from each airline.
STAR RANKING - METHODOLOGY
The Star Ranking details shown for each airline represent a summary of actual Quality Ranking and Analysis applied
across each airline's Product and Service standards by SKYTRAX. Full Star Rating determination examines
over 800 different areas of product and
service delivery, and complete listing is only available to subscribing airlines to the World Airline Star Rating® programme.
