These are: Air Baltic, Air New Zealand, Alaska Airlines, All Nippon Airways, AirAsia, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways, Delta Air Lines, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Eva Air, Japan Airlines, Jetblue, KLM, Korean Airlines, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, Southwest, Qatar Airways and Westjet.
According to Airlineratings.com editor-in-chief Geoffrey Thomas, these airlines have “gone above and beyond in the protection of passengers or in adding flexibility to travel”. “Äll these airlines have been trendsetters in making travel as safe as possible,” Thomas said.
“For instance, Qatar Airways has provided face shields as well as masks, and Emirates introduced COVID-19 health insurance and an individual health kit. Our website surveyed 430 airlines for COVID-19 compliance, and we have found that many airlines have changed their policies to achieve the highest ranking on our website. Now 119 airlines achieved the highest COVID-19 rating of seven stars but it is disappointing to see that 117 get a zero for compliance, or have no information for the public on their COVID policies on their website,” he was quoted as saying.
