Qatar Airways Wins “Airline of the Year” Award by Skytrax

Qatar Airways has been named "Airline of the Year" by the global air rating organization Skytrax for the seventh time, as the airline gladly celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2022. Earlier this morning, at a glinting event in London, the world's pioneering airline also received three additional awards, including World's Best Business Class, World's Best Business Class Lounge Dining, and Best Airline in the Middle East. Qatar Airways was named 'Airline of the Year’ in 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2021, and now 2022.

The distinguished 2022 Skytrax awards are highly sought after in the industry due to their reputation as the gold standard for distinction and excellence. Qatar Airways' home airport and hub, Hamad International Airport, was recently named the World's Best Airport 2022 for the second year in a row, allowing passengers to relax and enjoy their flights realizing they are flying with the World's Best Airline through the World's Best Airport.

For the sixth year in a row, the airline's premium cabin, which includes the patented Qsuite, has been named World's Best Business Class, while the Al Mourjan lounge has been recognized for its outstanding culinary excellence and has been named World's Best Business Class Lounge Dining. In a further acknowledgement of its leadership role not only in global aviation, but also in a highly competitive region, Qatar Airways was named Best Airline in the Middle East, a strong affirmation of its reputation for excellence, a strong global network, leading global partnerships, and every passenger journey involving Hamad International Airport.

The awards, widely known as “the Oscars of the Aviation Industry”, covered the 12-month period from September 2021 to August 2022, with over 14 million eligible entries considered in the results, during which Qatar Airways expanded its global network back to over 150 destinations. In addition, in January 2021, the airline became the first global airline to earn the Skytrax COVID-19 Safety Rating.
