Lists of other secure airlines in the world

(Date of publication unknown)

The security of flights is one of the most pressing issues that, anyway, are asked all travelers. Regardless of the range, any tourist wants the clock and minutes spent in the sky, the most calm and comfortable.

Often the choice of the airline, which carries out the flight, fully affects all these factors. Annually international companies comprise airline ratings that reflect the entire work of the carrier and its main indicator for the passenger - safety.

The VIPGEO portal represents the safest airline in Russia and the world, according to international ratings and authoritative publications.

Important: List of airlines was based on the rating of the European Aviation Security Agency - EASA. There are several more similar agencies in the world, and their data may differ slightly.

Secure airline Russia

According to European agencies, for 2019 the airline "" is recognized as the safest carrier registered in Russia. She was assigned the highest rating of 0.24 points, from the calculation - the closer to one, the more dangerous flights by this carrier.

The rating is drawn up on the basis of checking the overall state of liners, punctuality and compliance with the standards for documents and international law. As for the aircraft crash, since 1993, the Urals had a single incident with human victims.

"S7"

In the second place in safety is the largest air carrier behind the Urals S7.", Previously known as Siberia. Siberians have a park of airplanes, most often in the company on regular flights, 15-20-year-old airbuses and Boeing are operating. However, the technical condition of the aircraft from international commissions has never caused complaints.

The largest air crashes This company occurred in the early 2000s, when more than 300 people died in total. Since then, the level of safety of the transport "S7" meets all international standards, and precedents, except for two emergency landingswas not fixed.

As for the largest and oldest airline of Russia - "" - today the most disputes. On the one hand, they have the most impressive budget and allow regularly updating their fleet of aircraft. But on the other, the catastrophe series in the 90s seriously spifted the reputation, the once giant of transportation. Therefore, now - only the third place and 0.38 points.

But the main thing is that it is worth saying about Aeroflote, this is what the company is the only one of the Russian carriers, steadily entering international ratings. True, the same Jacdeck Agency of 2019 placed Aeroflot only on the 36th place in the list of the safest airlines in the world.

Registered in Khanty-Mansiysk, today - one of the most sought-after carriers in a country having dozens of internal and international destinations.

What is interesting, the basis of the company's park is made up of new aircraft of the ATR brand, which makes the carrier as a kind of leader in short regional flights.

A plane crash at Utyir happened, but the last major incident happened in 2014 with the Mi-8 cargo helicopter. Passenger aircraft Fly without incident.

Secure airlines in the world

The rating of the safest air carriers in the world in 2019 deservedly headed the company "" registered in Hong Kong. She has been in the market since 1946, and over the past three decades, the only incident associated with its aircraft has become hard landmark Passenger liner flying from Indonesia.

To date, CathayPacificairways serves dozens of countries, including all Southeast Asia, Europe, USA and Russia. Recently, the company has launched even a Russian-speaking site, with the possibility of ticket booking.

Despite the incidents of 2017, the Carriers of the Arab Emirates continue to take second place in the rating of the safest airlines in the world. And the best of the best is the company "". They annually update the park of ships, as well as regularly improve the quality of passenger service - from economy class, to first class.

For russian tourists Emirates is important at least that it cooperates with "S7" by organizing in Dubai and Abu Dhabi connecting flights to Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Maldives. In addition, in 10 Russian cities, there is the possibility of direct charter departure by airplanes of this company.

"Evaair"

The third place in the rating of the safest airline takes another Chinese carrier - " Evaair." He began work in 1989, and for the years of existence, not a single aircraft crash with human victims. The only precedents were associated with a rigid landing in the United States.

Unfortunately, Russian travelers can take advantage of the services of this airline only in Asian airports.

«Qatarairways»

And the fourth place, according to the safety ratings of the airlines 2019, the Middle Eastern aircraft from the company "" is firmly taken. The carrier in Doha is based and serves 160 directions worldwide. From 1993 year, the company had only two incidents, but both were without human victims.

The carrier has a huge park of ships from the Boeing and Airbus. That attractive for Russian tourists - Qatari aircraft regularly make flights through Moscow, St. Petersburg and Voronezh.

Are there any dangerous loucks, how are they talking about them?

Recently, due to the frequent reports of Lookers, many tourists began to refuse cheap carriers, sincerely believing that companies intend to save on security for the number of tickets sold. But how much is it true?

Tourists with extensive flight experience on the Lookers argue that rumors and speculation are nothing more than exaggeration. Yes, there are problems with the louctoros, but a key cause of a disaster, as elsewhere, the human factor becomes. Links to allegedly old aircraft of our "Victory" and other cheap companies - falsification. Doubting discussion participants are sent to the official websites of the carrier.

If you seriously approach the question, then the main problem of louxers is the lack of proper comfort when flying, but not the safety of passengers. If you choose cheap flightYou need to know what you save. If you are afraid - you are a direct road at the box office of large airlines.

Probably, all passengers, not just people suffering from Aerofobia want to fly on airplanes as safe as possible. Therefore, apparently, various international organizations annually determine the safest airlines in the world and in Russia, publishing ratings.
To begin with, we note that air transport, in general, is very safe. According to statistics, 1 million of 300 thousand flights occurs 1 disaster. It is not difficult to calculate: to make such a number of flights, you need to fly every day during 3.5 thousand years old. Nevertheless, aviation accidents happen. At different airlines - with different frequency.

Rating of the most secure air markets in the world

Two ratings - German companies enjoy the greatest authority and confidence Jacdec. and portal AirlineRatings.com. In 2017, they unveiled their lists of the safest airlines in the world. For clarity, place top 10 from both versions in the form of a table.

A place	Jacdec.	AirlineRatings.
1	Cathay Pacific Airways.	Qantas.
2	Emirates.	American Airlines.
3	Eva Air.	Alaska Airlines.
4	Qatar Airways.	All Nippon Airways.
5	Hainan Airlines.	Air New Zealand.
6	KLM.	Cathay Pacific Airways.
7	Air New Zealand.	Emirates.
8	Etihad Airways.	Etihad Airways.
9	Japan Airlines.	Eva Air.
10	Tap Portugal.	Finnair.

Concerning russian airlines, then the only one present in the ranking of Jacdec on the 36th place, is an Aeroflot. Thus, domestic carriers does not make sense to compare with the best foreign companies. For them there is a rating.

Rating of the safest airlines of Russia

From the Russian airlines Top-10 do not compile. According to the European Aviation Security Agency, only four companies are more or less safe: Ural Airlines, S7, Aeroflot and Utair.
With the aircraft of each of these airlines, accidents occurred, but only in the incidents of the Ural Airlines did not have human victims.

Airlines that have no catastrophe

There are quite a few air carriers whose airplanes never got into a catastrophe. One can take into account the age of companies. The lion's share of those who had no incidents were created 5-10 years ago. If we talk about Avacual Aviation, then the undisputed record holder is the Australian Qantas Airways.. She did not have accidents that led to the death of people, more than 70 years. More than 30 years did not happen the tragic incidents at the following airlines: Finnair, Air New Zealand, Tap Portugal, Cathay Pacific Airways, All Nippon Airways, Air Berlin.

AirlineRatings analysts accounted for another airline rating based on the safety criterion. Companies using aircraft built in Russia or countries former USSR, not too high.

AirlineRatings experts analyzed information about 409 world airlines on multiple parameters - for example, is the company has a security certificate international Association Air transport (IATA), is it not included in the black list of the European Union, whether accidents with death (excluding terrorist attacks) occurred over the past ten years) and so on.

The aggravating circumstance for companies was considered the fact that if their fleet consists exclusively from cars built in Russia or the former USSR.

So, the most dangerous in the world According to AirlineRatings, six airlines are. Five of them are located in Asia, one - in South America:

- Air Koryo, North Korea;
- Blue Wing, Suriname. In 2010, the last case of death was recorded;
- Nepal Airlines, Nepal. Over the past ten years, at least some machines did not meet the security standards for ICAO parameters, and in addition, the company is in the black list in the EU;
- TRIGANA AIR, INDONESIA. Among other disadvantages, the EU black list also holds;
- Yeti Airlines, Nepal. In disgrace, including because of another Nepali company - Nepal Airlines;
- Tara Air, Nepal. The same problems as other Nepalese airlines.

Thus, Nepal holds the championship in terms of risk for the life of passengers. This is largely due to the fact that the Mountains of Himalayas occupy most of the territory of Nepal.

Twenty of the safest airlines in the world looks like this:

- Air New Zealand, New Zealand
- Alaska Airlines, USA
- All Nippon Airways, Japan
- British Airways, United Kingdom
- CATHAY PACIFIC AIRWAYS, Hong Kong
- Emirates, United United Arab Emirates
- Etihad Airways, United Arab Emirates
- Eva Air, Taiwan
- Finnair, Finland
- Hawaiian Airlines, USA

- KLM, Netherlands
- Lufthansa, Germany
- Qantas, Australia
- Royal Jordanian Airlines, Jordan
- Scandinavian Airlines, Sweden
– Singapore Airlines., Singapore
- SWISS, Switzerland
- Virgin Atlantic, United Kingdom
- Virgin Australia, Australia

Since 1951, in the history of Australian Qantas, there was not a single case with a fatal outcome. Thus, this airline, according to experts AirlineRatings, is one of the safest in the world.

In the world, an increasing number of companies carrying out passenger and cargo air transportations annually appear. There is a continuous competitive struggle between them. Each air carrier seeks to improve the quality of its service to attract as many customers as possible. Each year, various organizations based on passenger survey or expert opinions make an assessment and form airline carrier ratings.
