Airlineratings.com's highly coveted Airline Excellence Awards for 2024 are set for take-off on Monday, March 11 at 8 am Australian Western Standard Time.

Here is the schedule:

March 11: Regional Airline Of The Year

March 19: Best In Flight Entertainment & Catering

March 26: Best Cabin Crew

April 2: Best Cabin Classes - First, Business, Premium Economy and Economy

April 9: Best Geographical Winners - Long Haul & Regional Airlines

April 16: Best Environmental Airline

April 23: Best Low-Cost Airlines & Top Twenty LCCs

April 30: Airline Of The Year & Top Twenty

AirlineRatings.com founder Geoffrey Thomas said: "This initiative from our editorial team is about highlighting individual category winners each week, rather than one big announcement that tends to highlight the overhaul winner."

Airlineratings.com is packed with information about air travel and answers questions that many of us may have thought of, but didn’t know who to ask. Well, now you do!

Airlineratings.com was developed to provide everyone in the world with a one-stop shop for everything related to airlines, formed by a team of aviation editors, who have forensically researched nearly every airline in the world.

Our rating system is rated from one to seven stars on safety – with seven being the highest ranking. Within each airline, you will find the country of origin, airline code, booking URL and seat map information. The rating system takes into account a number of different factors related to audits from aviation’s governing bodies, lead associations as well as the airline’s own safety data. Every airline has a safety rating breakdown so you can see exactly how they rate.

Over 230 of the airlines on the site that carry 99 per cent of the world’s passengers have a product rating. Given that low-cost, regional and full-service carriers are so different we have constructed a different rating system for each which can be found within each airline
