Which companies are the safest in the world

In addition to safety measures, here are prayers to be recited before and/or during the flight

In a world like today's air transport where, as demonstrated by the'Tokyo incident of Jan. 2, even the worst-case scenario can be resolved without any fatalities or serious injuries, the companies that also for 2024 have obtained 7-star ratings are many.

However, in the report it produces at the beginning of each year, airlineratings.com also highlighted for 2024 a top 25 safest airlines, leading Air New Zealand followed by Qantas and Virgin Australia.

The top 10 is rounded out by Etihad Airways, Qatar Airways, Emirates, All Nippon Airways, Finnair (first in Europe), Cathay Pacific, and Alaska Airlines; the other 15 top carriers for safety are SAS, Korean Air, Singapore Airlines, EVA Air, British Airways, Turkish Airlines, TAP Air Portugal, Lufthansa Group, KLM, Japan Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, American Airlines, Air France, Air Canada, and United Airlines.

Airlineratings.com has entered low-cost airlines in a stand-alone ranking where another Australian carrier, Jetstar, is at the top. Europe's easyjet occupies the second step of the podium, followed by arch-rival Ryanair; Wizz Air takes fourth place, followed by Norwegian, Frontier, Vueling, Vietjet, Southwest, and Volaris (which rounds out the top 10). Flydubai, Air Asia, Cebu Pacific, Sun Country, Spirit, Westjet, JetBlue, Air Arabia, Indigo and Eurowings follow.
