Bounce, a luggage storage company, published its annual ranking of the world’s best international airlines on August 2.
Bounce analysed data from 52 of the largest airlines in the world – according to the total number of departures in 2022. The company evaluated these airlines based on the following 10 factors: on-time arrivals, percentage of cancellations, total number of flights, free carry-on allowance, free checked domestic allowance, free checked international allowance, meal, in-flight entertainment, seat comfort, and staff service.
“The reliability of airlines can vary hugely from company to company, as can the quality of on board comfort, service, and entertainment, all of which contribute to a fantastic laying experience,” Bounce wrote on its website.
At the top of the list: Japan Airlines, which had a total score of 8.28, was crowned the best airline in the world. Singapore Airlines, another Asian airline, was ranked in second place.
Insider has included the scores of each airline in four criteria – meal, staff service, in-flight entertainment, and seat comfort – as these are factors many passengers take into account when booking with airlines.
