The world's safest airlines were announced in early January. The independent assessment organization Airlineratings, when compiling the rating, was guided by data from state aviation authorities, various checks, studies, and death records. When compiling the rating, the level of airports where the bases of airlines are located, the comfort of their aircraft and how often the aircraft fleet is updated were taken into account.

The issue of flight safety is one of the most pressing issues that, one way or another, all travelers ask. Regardless of the distance, any tourist wants the hours and minutes spent in the sky to be as calm and comfortable as possible.

Often the choice of the airline that operates the flight, completely affects all these factors. Every year, international companies compile airline ratings that reflect the entire work of the carrier and its main indicator for the passenger - safety.

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

Important: The list of airlines was compiled on the basis of the rating of the European Agency for aviation security- EASA. There are several other similar agencies in the world, and their data may vary slightly.

Safe airlines in 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, based on the calculation - the closer to one, the more dangerous flights by this carrier.

The rating is compiled on the basis of checking the general condition of the liners, punctuality and compliance with documentary standards and international law. As for air crashes, since 1993, the Urals have not had a single incident with human casualties.

"S7"

In second place in terms of safety is the largest air carrier beyond the Urals " S7", formerly known as the company" Siberia ". The “Siberians” have an older aircraft fleet, most often 15-20-year-old Airbuses and Boeings work in the company on regular flights. However, the technical condition of the aircraft never caused any complaints from international commissions.

The biggest plane crashes of this company occurred in the early 2000s, when more than 300 people died in total. Since then, the level of security of transportation "S7" meets all international standards, and precedents, except for two emergency landings, was not recorded.

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

But the main thing worth saying about Aeroflot is that the company is the only Russian carrier that consistently enters international ratings. True, the same JACDEC agency in 2019 placed Aeroflot only in 36th place in the list of the safest airlines in the world.

Registered in Khanty-Mansiysk, the company "" today is one of the most popular carriers in the country, with dozens of domestic and international destinations.

Interestingly, the company's fleet is based on new medium-capacity aircraft of the ATR brand, which makes the carrier a kind of leader in short regional flights.

Air crashes have happened at UTair, but the last major incident happened in 2014 with a MI-8 cargo helicopter. Passenger aircraft fly without incident.

The safest airlines in the world

The rating of the safest air carriers in the world in 2019 was deservedly headed by the Hong Kong-based company. It has been on the market since 1946, and over the past three decades, the only accident associated with its aircraft has been a hard landing. passenger liner flying from Indonesia.

Today, Cathay Pacific Airways serves dozens of countries, including all South East Asia, Europe, USA and Russia. Recently, the company has even launched a Russian-language website with the ability to book tickets.

Despite the incidents of 2017, the carriers of the United Arab Emirates continue to rank second in the ranking of the safest airlines in the world. And the best of the best is the company "". They annually update the fleet of ships, and also regularly improve the quality of passenger service - from economy class to first class.

For Russian tourists Emirates is important if only because it cooperates with S7 organizing in Dubai and Abu Dhabi connecting flights to Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Maldives. In addition, at 10 Russian cities there is a possibility of direct charter flight aircraft of this company.

EVAAir

The third place in the ranking of the safest airlines is occupied by another Chinese carrier - " EVAAir". It began work in 1989, and over the years of its existence, it has not allowed a single air crash with human casualties. The only precedents were associated with a hard landing in the United States.

Unfortunately, Russian travelers can use the services of this airline only at Asian airports.

Qatar Airways

And the fourth place, according to the airline safety ratings of 2019, was firmly occupied by Middle Eastern aircraft from the company "". The carrier is based in Doha and serves 160 destinations worldwide. Since 1993, the company has had only two accidents, but both of them did without human casualties.

The carrier has a huge fleet of Boeings and Airbuses. What is attractive for Russian tourists is that Qatari planes regularly fly through Moscow, St. Petersburg and Voronezh.

Are low-cost airlines as dangerous as they are said to be?

Recently, due to increased reports of low-cost airline crashes, many tourists have begun to abandon cheap carriers, sincerely believing that companies intend to save on safety for the sake of the number of tickets sold. But how true is this?

Tourists with extensive experience flying low-cost airlines claim that rumors and speculation are nothing more than exaggerations. Yes, there are problems with low-cost airlines, but the key cause of disasters, as elsewhere, is the human factor. Links to supposedly old planes of our Pobeda and other cheap companies are fake. Doubting participants in the discussions are sent to the official websites of the carrier.

If we take the issue seriously, then the main problem of low-cost airlines is the lack of proper comfort during the flight, but not the safety of passengers. If you choose a cheap flight, you need to know what you are saving on. If you are afraid, you have a direct road to the ticket offices of major airlines.

In Rostov-on-Don of the FlyDubai liner, there were suggestions on the Internet that the Arab low-cost airline did not pay enough attention to security issues. However, there is no documentary evidence for this. Lenta.ru studied the rating of the safest airlines in the world and found out which carriers are not afraid to fly.

The most authoritative in the world of aviation in the last 13 years is the annual rating of the German research company Jacdec. When preparing the Safety Index, experts analyze data on all aviation accidents over the past 30 years (in the latest rating, accident data that occurred since 1986 was taken into account). The safety audit indicators of the international organizations IOSA (IATA Operational Safety Audit) and ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) also play a significant role.

The later the catastrophe happened, the more weight it has in calculating the corresponding place in the ranking. In total, the compilers of the Safety Index take into account eight parameters. It takes into account passenger traffic, the number of victims in all incidents and the number of completely lost or destroyed aircraft. So-called serious incidents also play an important role - we mean landings with a failed engine, other breakdowns and overruns off the runway (runway).

The position of the airline in the ranking improves every full year without a single incident. The last parameter that guides the compilers of the index is the rating of the country to which the airline belongs. It, in turn, is formed on the basis of the transparency of the actions of the regulatory authorities investigating aviation accidents.

We must immediately make a reservation that FlyDubai is not included in the list of the safest carriers in the world. However, not due to any aviation incidents, but because of its too short history: experts do not consider it possible to evaluate a company established in 2009. However, until March 19, the company's only incident dated January 2015 - then a Boeing 737 en route from Dubai was fired upon while landing at Baghdad Airport. The crew was able to land the aircraft, but no damage was caused.

Leaders-2016

In February, the next Safety Index 2016 was published. Like a year ago, it was headed by the Hong Kong carrier Cathay Pacific Airways (in the 2014 ranking it was in second place). The company's safety index (the lower the better) is 0.006.

The carrier's only incident in 30 years was a hard landing at Hong Kong airport in 2010. Then, due to low-quality fuel, the pilots of the Airbus A330, which took off from Surabaya (the second largest city in Indonesia), could not fully control the engine thrust. As a result, the liner landed at high speed and received significant damage, but none of the passengers and crew members were injured.

At the same time, in 1972, Cathay Pacific Airways lost a Convair 880 aircraft flying from Bangkok to Hong Kong, when a bomb hidden in a suitcase exploded on board the liner. The death toll in a plane that crashed near the Vietnamese city of Pleiku was 81 people.

In addition, in 1948, a Cathay Pacific Airways floatplane was hijacked by terrorists. The attack is believed to be the first such incident in commercial aviation history. Four criminals participated in the capture, shortly after takeoff they killed the pilot. As a result, the plane crashed in the river delta Chinese province Guangdong, 26 people were killed. The only survivor was the leader of the terrorists.

Second place for the second year in a row goes to Emirates (index: 0.007). There were only two serious incidents in the history of the Arab carrier. In 2004, an Airbus A340 skidded off the runway during takeoff at Johannesburg Airport. No one was injured then, but the aircraft shot down 25 approach lights, as a result of which four tires were punctured and the fuselage was damaged.

In 2009, another Airbus A340 hit some lights at the end of a runway in Melbourne. The plane took off, but the crew decided to return, as the liner received minor damage.

From Russia, Emirates operates flights to the UAE, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Seychelles and Bali, and thanks to a codeshare agreement with S7, connecting flights are possible from more than 30 cities.

Rounding out the top three for the second year in a row is EVA Air (index: 0.008), Taiwan's second largest airline.

Founded in 1989, during its existence it has not allowed a single serious incident. A small accident with an Eva Air Boeing 747 occurred in 2012 in the United States: during taxiing, the pilots did not calculate the trajectory and hit the wing of an American Eagle aircraft.

In May 2015, the carrier received an anonymous call about a bomb planted on board a Boeing 777, which at that moment was flying from Taiwan to Los Angeles. Immediately after landing, a thorough inspection of the aircraft was carried out, but no explosives were found. In January 2016, a flight en route from Los Angeles to Taiwan made an unscheduled landing in Sapporo: one of the passengers required emergency medical attention.

Eva Air does not fly to Russia.

The top ten are Qatar Airways(index: 0.009), Hainan Airlines (0.010), KLM (0.010), Air New Zealand (0.011), Etihad Airways (0.013), Japan Airlines (0.015) and TAP Portugal (0.015).

Security in Russia

the only Russian airline, one of the top 60 safest in the world, is Aeroflot. The main Russian carrier is ranked 36th (0.106). For comparison: the Italian Alitalia (0.110) has approximately the same rating, but the French Air France (0.129) and the American American Airlines (0.139) lose to Aeroflot.

Previously, Transaero was also in the top 60 - last year the airline even got into the top twenty of the rating, taking 17th place with an index of 0.024.

When analyzing safety, Skytrax experts analyze the compliance with safety standards by airline employees, and also attend corporate courses where crews practice practical actions in emergency situations. At the same time, Skytrax does not have any separate index, but safety is taken into account when compiling the Quality Rating.

In the Quality Rating itself, places are not ranked; instead, the airline is assigned a rating - from one to five stars. Now the list of five-star carriers includes seven air carriers: Cathay Pacific Airways (Hong Kong), ANA All Nippon Airways (Japan), Asiana Airlines ( South Korea), Garuda Indonesia (Indonesia), Hainan Airlines (China), Singapore Airlines (Singapore) and Qatar Airways (Qatar).

The Russian S7 and Aeroflot have three stars each, the Rossiya airline has two.

The Arab low-cost airline FlyDubai, whose plane crashed in Rostov-on-Don, has not yet received a Skytrax rating.

International airlines do not get tired of improving the service, trying to win first positions. The “best of the best” fail to impress passengers: armchairs with massagers, menus from chefs, the ability to check the weather from robots, and even babysitting services for children. Qatar Airways is valued for its superior business class and first class lounge. Among European carriers, Lufthansa stands out. And most importantly, each airline has its own "face" and its own philosophy. In this review, we have collected - top 10.
