Best Airline

[Thunderstorm]

If yours is other, please specify below.

I did International because not everyone is from America or England or etc.

I picked Delta. Even if you haven't travelled on one, pick one that has good ratings based on resarch and what not.

[EmptyBottle]

I like Frontier.

[Cognizant]

I've always flied on United.

[Thunderstorm]

I like Frontier.

I knew this was gonna happen.

That is not International. Did you not read the title of the poll?

[Neverender]

Why isn't WestJet on here but fucking Air Canada is.

On Air Canada the stewardess is likely to smother you with a pillow if you ask for one.

[Stronger]

Well the only ones I've flown are national, but Delta gets my vote, since I'm flying with them on Friday.

[Greg1994]

I was always a continental fan, but after the merger, we'll still stay with united. We will never fly Delta again, not gonna make that mistake again, plus getting into the United Club through my dads work is a nice bonus!

[Φρανκομβριτ]

I like Frontier.

Frontier services Cancun, Mexico, and is therefore an international carrier.

I say BA by far, but Qantas, Singapore airlines and a couple others not listed are up there.

Whops. Sorry. Didn't know that.

I was going to put Qantas up there but you only know so many different nationalities on VT. How many teens on here have used Singapore Airlines or Korea Airways and etc.?

[Gandalf]

British Airway's just because I'm a tad soft and like the taste of home/national pride... Although I dislike Willie Walsh (CEO "IAG")

I'm also biased towards Swiss...

[gig-guy]

DELTA!!!! or JetBlue

[LatinaVivit]

American Airways or Iberian are the worst, especially if you're doing a trans-Atlantic flight. When I went to Paris, then back from Madrid I was so uncomfortable.

[IanO]

Aer Lingus is quality service, especially on long haul A330 flights.

[christianteen]

Virgin.

[joshduder]

Wtf emirates rocks ...is the best

[whiteyrhys]

The 2011 Skytrax Awards has chosen Qatar Airways as the best airline in the world in all booking classes. With the 2012 Awards being held this month (12th July) at the Farnborough International Airshow which is held every other year.

However having travelled in all booking classes with Qatar Airways since this announcement last year - I do not agree. In terms of First Classes I would say that Emirates is probably my favourite followed by Singapore Airlines, Qantas, Etihad, Cathay Pacific, BA. These airlines are also all Skytrax 4/5* Rated Airlines.

In the Business Cabin my favourite(s) are probably Singapore Airlines, Air New Zealand, Virgin (Virgin and Air New Zealand do not offer a First Class product) then BA.

My all time favourite though is Emirates.

[wild1]

Jetblue is good jake except for insane captains :P

[Ace007]

Qantas is my best airliner plus Virgin too....

[sms22]

American airlines is the best one in my opinion :)

[kitzz]

British airways. Emirates is also a world class airline with wonderful facilities :)

[garrettu]

Southwest Airlines is the best by me, delta is a close 2nd though

[whiteyrhys]

^^ Has taste!

[Martianus]

Totally Air France

[User Deleted]

Continental before united fucked it up.

[Malcolm Tucker]

I've always put a lot of emphasis on the quality and friendliness of the crew as a marker for quality of an airline. From my flying experience, the best crews I've found were on Delta Mainline and Aer Lingus.

[Will Grigg's on Fire]

The only one I've flown with on the list is United on a short distance flight, so obviously I couldn't have had a great experience with them... I think that Air Mauritius or SAA are probably the best that I have flown with, although all in all when flying a long distance flight in Economy class, almost every good airline is on a similar level, except for the exceptional ones which I have not yet flown with (unless the ones I listed are on par with them)

[Curoz]

I voted virgin Australia, they are a great airline and are improving rapidly, while Qantas Is just falling into a hole.

Though the best international airline is Singapore Airlines. Great seats in economy, and business is just amazing! The food is also very very delicious. Plus Singapore airport is the most pleasant I have had the joy of visiting

[scott757]

I went with BA solely because I flew them last year and was very impressed. We had a perfect flight LHR-GLA not a single bump and he kissed the runway like it was his wife.

However, I found that easyjet were very good aswell, legroom on a par with British Airways and on both flights we had great landings (We flew to Heraklion, Crete, witch is a very difficult airport to land at and he did a great landing with barely any "thump" back to earth)

[Abyssal Echo]

Idk about the best but I've never had any problems flying on Delta

[scott757]

Oh yeah, one thing I noticed (being nit-picky here) it's "Alitalia" not "AirItalia" ;)

[Mirage]

I wish you had United. I LOVE them! Southwest used to be good (and mostly still is) but they lost my luggage once so since then I have no trust in Southwest. United has smooth flights, friendly staff, and great meal options.

+1 for United <3

EDIT: *facepalm* They do have United but I didn't see it. Ugh, -1 vote for Other and +1 for United...

[Gandalf]

This poll has been running 12 day's, and it is very clear that the single most popular on votes is British Airway's. (Yes other has more votes but it's a larger category)

Gold star for Willie Walsh. :P Yes I'm being sarcastic.


EDIT: This post was correct at time of first submission.

[PinkFloyd]

Delta airlines earned my vote.

I have flown airfrance, air canada, british airlines, and many more including sun country.

they all equal trash to me but none more than sun country.

[MisterSix]

I quite like Lufthansa

[Stronger]

Out of those, Delta; but JetBlue is still #1 to me...and so was AirTran till Southwest bought them over -__-

[whiteyrhys]

Anyone checked the Skytrax 2012 Awards? I suppose each airline has a category they excel in for example.

I'm not sure how British Airways has managed to be the most popular...their planes are dated (saying that they are due for A380 and 787 delivery early next year) , their interiors are scruffy (apart from the 77W product which is slowly being rolled out) and they have abominable catering which hasn't got an 'up side' apart from their chocolates they give out in First/Business class, they are ace.

[DarkHorse4eva]

S.A.S.

[uta755]

Singapore Airlines !
because their meal was very nice
got a great inflight entertaiment
also with great asian smiles.

[azorne]

Emirates and Singapore Airlines. I've flown on AA and Delta, and neither are anything special. Qatar Airlines is nice only if you can shell out $600+ additional fare for first class, otherwise its not so great. Luftansa was another great airline that makes my list.

Didn't put United because they have been part of Continental for a few months now.

[Blhhh8980]

Jet blue!!!!! They have tvs!

[Gumleaf]

I have flown the following airlines and rank them like this:

1. Qantas
2. Delta
3. V Australia
4. American
5. United
6. Jetstar

[rivers97]

Well I 've travelled only twice from Germany to Greece with Aegean Airlines (Greek airlines) and everything was just perfect.

[NotAvailable]

My 3 best air lines that i use in my transportation always , by order are :

1- Qatar Airlines.
2- Emirates Airlines.
3 Lufthansa.

[Michael702]

Other, I've only flown to Hawaii to visit family so Hawaiian airlines is my vote I think we flew southwest once and it was when I was younger so I don't really remember it to much.

[Cognizant]

I've only flown on United and the defunct ATA, but from what i've seen/like:
1. Emirates
2. Virgin America (it IS international, before you yell at me that it isn't)
3. British Airways
4. United Airlines
5. Delta Air Lines

[Neverender]

Come to think of it, I don't know why Air Canada is even an option.

The people who work for Air Canada are more likely to strangle you than actually do something for you.

[Rdsxbaseballfan]

i have tried delta, southwest, united airlines, and air canada but none of them can top jet blue in my opinion

Hahah I knew VA was an international airline!!!!

[TheBigUnit]

Emirates is the best then singapore then prob qantas, luftansa.....the best airline in usa is southwest or united

[Row your]

Sun country!!!

[gone123]

Westjet.

[biteen95]

i´ve flown a ton on several airlines, and i find that usually delta is the best service for the best price

[nino51300]

Singapore..

[wild1]

The one I'm on when it lands safely.

[cianmg]

emirites have the best planes entertainment and service

[trail.t.trail]

Asian airlines generally have much better service I've found. But I liked Swiss the couple of times I flew it as well. In order of ranking my top five are probably:
1. Emirates
2. Cathay Pacific
3. Singapore Airlines
4. Jet Airways
5. Swiss

[Jamie1515]

British Airways are very good and therefore get my vote.. However Virgin Atlantic are brilliant, and Virgin America are just amazing but don't quite top BA.. Not often you get leather seats, massive legroom and a TV on a 1 hour flight though, and with VA you get just that on LAX-SFO.. :)

[horizonlooker]

Well considering I've only flown internationally with American, they get my vote lol.

[Mikedamaniak]

Westjet for sure... until they stopped allowing unatended minors on their flights
Yea why isn't it on here

[TheBigUnit]

Emeriates by far, virgin is innovative

[RunnerRunner]

i would go with avianca. the service and the livery are awesome.

[Nellerin]

Why would Southwest not be on the list, they are great IMO.

[TheBigUnit]

I love southwest too but really theoreticsally speaking suppose southwest and an airline like emirates were to compete, same route same ticket price, emirates would win by far, that being said southwest is a LCC so there no need for tvs and showers

[project_icarus]

How is Qantas not on the list!?

[West Coast Sheriff]

American airlines

[shani]

British airways

[Silver Assassin]

I have a bit of a phobia of planes, so none of these for me.

[StorageWars101]

Lufthansa is the best for me.

[AllSwaggedUp]

Personally, I think Virgin Australia is by far the best. The seats are bigger. There is more legroom. Food is above average. And the service is absolutely amazing!

[xXoblivionXx]

I travel with United most of the time but sometimes I use Royal Jordanian, it's really nice :D

[Daracon]

I like Porter

[shani]

Emirates is a good one too

[Beckblue]

United, and being able to get through security faster and into the clubs with my dad is a nice bonus.
My second favorite might be BA.

[Swagg]

Etihad was simple amazing
