World's best cabins: from Cathay's economy to Singapore's first, here are the winners according to Skytrax

Of course the best airline in the world in 2024 is Qatar, but that is a title that encompasses a whole range of factors such as lounges, hubs all the way to in-flight catering and service. There is a more objective and, in my opinion, more important ranking namely that of the best booths. 

The 2024 ranking Is not much different from last year's, perhaps the big news will come in 2025 when many new products launched in recent months will become much more widespread. Compared to last year, JAL takes the throne for premium economy, while Cathay Pacific takes the throne for best economy.

The constant in this ranking is that carriers from the old continent and the U.S. can only settle for the backseats. Qatar breaks the dominance of Asian carriers, sure in the Middle East economics allow carriers to do crazy things, but in this case we see how Asia which has always been a leader in these rankings manages to hold its own.

Singapore Airlines has the best first class in the world

I have traveled there and can only confirm, The Suite on Singapore's A380 is by far the best first-class cabin in the world. Of course in the inflluencer world everyone is talking about the Emirates shower, but there is just no match what the second best airline in the world offers no one else offers

Qatar Airways confirms world's best business class

The QSuite is in a category of its own, and even in 2024 it wins the award for the world's best business class cabin, sure it often happens not to fly on a plane with this seat installed, but when you try this combination for the first time you never go back.

JAL wins the title of world's best premium economy

Japan's second largest airline had triumphed in economy last year, This year goes up a notch and takes the title of best EP Of the world. Accomplice also the new fittings launched on the A350s. more surprises are to be expected from this company next year. More and more carriers are banking on this cabin, and this award for the Japanese carrier bodes well for the 2025 ranking.

The best economy class in the world is Cathay's

I have often flown with the Hong Kong airline, but never in economy. After this award, I can only put on my "wish list" a flight from Milan to Asia aboard the tourist class to see if indeed Cathay's proposal is the best in the world. Definitely an excuse to return to HKG to pamper myself in the beautiful lounges where, regardless of the ticket, I can get in because of the status.

In conclusion

If you want to see all the awards presented to the Skytrax Awards of 2024 all you have to do is read our special. Qatar did a double take, at the beginning of the year it has . Snatched the title of best airport from Singapore and now also that of best airline, in recent years the challenge for these two prestigious awards is just a bargain between QR and SQ with the other carriers non-paying spectators.
