Qatar Airways has been voted the World’s Best Airline for a record seventh time at the 2022 World Airline Awards. At the event, India’s Vistara was also a key winner, bagging two awards for the Best Airline in India and Southern Asia and the Best Airline Staff Service in India and Southern Asia.
Among the 100 best airlines, Vistara ranked 20 while another Indian budget flyer Indigo ranked 45.
Widely regarded as ‘the Oscars of the aviation industry,’ the World Airline Awards are based on the customer surveys conducted by the organisers of the event Skytrax, a United Kingdom-based airline and airport ranking website.
The Chief Executive Officer of Vistara, Vinod Kannan, said “It is incredibly heartening for all of us at Vistara to win these awards, which reaffirms the steadfast trust our customers have in us and is a true testament to Vistara setting global benchmarks for excellence in operations and service delivery.”
Meanwhile, Qatar Airways bagged eight more awards, including Best Business Class, Best Business Class Seat, and Best Business Class Lounge Dining, apart from the Best Airline award.
