The editors of AirlineRatings.com, some of the most experienced and awarded, over a period of four months look for a consistent level of service, innovation and staff engagement from each major contender. “We are looking for leaders in the industry, airlines that go the extra distance to make a real difference to the passenger experience,” said Geoffrey Thomas AirlineRatings.com Editor-in-Chief. “While we do not have a public vote we do consider website feedback from passengers when making our final decisions.” –
