• The annual World Airlines Award announcement

came at the Farnborough International Air Show in

the UK for the year 2014.

and is the leading, global Airline Rating system

classifying airlines by the Quality of front-line

product and staff service standards.

views from nearly 19 million airline travelers from

160 nations globally to put together the ranking

results.

last year topper Emirates airline.

the winner title four times in 2003, 2005 and 2009

and then 2014.

the second time, coming in at number 11. Last year

Qantas ranked 10th, and its highest position was in

2008 when it was named third in the world.

The set back in Qantas Airline is due to the last year

water pipe leaked from the deck of a plane in the

flight of Los Angeles to Melbourne.
