Etihad Airways bags Skytrax’s ‘World’s Best First Class’ Award

Etihad Airways has won three awards for its First Class at the Skytrax World Airline Awards, according to the results of the latest Skytrax survey on 200 airlines across the world.

The public poll, which included almost 18 million global air travellers from more than 100 countries, named the Abu Dhabi-based airline as having the ‘World’s Best First Class’, ‘Best First Class Airline Seat’ and ‘Best First Class Onboard Catering’. Skytrax awards are among the most prestigious in the aviation industry.

The annual Skytrax survey takes into account all aspects of the air travel experience as well as the quality of customer service delivered by each airline’s staff.

“We are exceptionally proud to have won these three awards for our new and innovative First Class product and service which is now recognised as the world’s best by the ultimate judges — air travellers,” said Peter Baumgartner, Etihad Airways’ Chief Commercial Officer.
