Οι δέκα ασφαλέστερες αεροπορικές εταιρείες στον κόσμο

Οι δέκα ασφαλέστερες αεροπορικές εταιρείες στον κόσμο
Η αυστραλιανή Qantas αναδείχθηκε ως η ασφαλέστερη αεροπορική εταιρεία
Με το 2014 να χαρακτηρίζεται ως η χειρότερη χρονιά για στην ιστορία της αεροπορικής βιομηχανίας, πολλοί ίσως να έχουν αρχίσει να αμφισβητούν την ασφάλεια των αεροπορικών ταξιδιών.
Και όμως, παρά τα 21 θανατηφόρα ατυχήματα που σημειώθηκαν την περασμένη χρονιά, με συνολικά 986 θύματα, τα αεροπλάνα παραμένουν τα πιο ασφαλή ταξιδιωτικά μέσα, ειδικότερα αν αναλογιστεί κανείς ότι το 2014 πραγματοποιήθηκαν 27 εκατ. πτήσεις, οι οποίες εξυπηρέτησαν 3,3 δισ. επιβάτες.
Η σχετική ιστοσελίδα AirlineRatings.com ανέδειξε τις δέκα ασφαλέστερες αεροπορικές εταιρείες παγκοσμίως, βάσει πολλών διαφορετικών παραμέτρων.
Η λίστα που ακολουθεί δεν είναι κατάταξη, καθώς η ιστοσελίδα περιορίστηκε να απονείμει μοναχά το στέμμα της…ασφάλειας στην αυστραλιανή Qantas.
Αξιοσημείωτο είναι πάντως ότι καμία αμερικανική αεροπορική εταιρεία δεν βρήκε θέση στη δεκάδα.

Air New Zealand (Νέα Ζηλανδία)

Air New Zealand has made a fine recovery after a period of financial turmoil in the early 2000s. This renaissance culminated with AirlineRatings.com recently naming it the best airline in the world.  Air New Zealand has not suffered any significant incidents in the past couple of decades.

Singapore Airlines (Σιγκαπούρη)

Singapore Airlines is universally lauded for its high quality service and efficient operations. It is also Business Insider's pick for the best airline in the world. The Changi Airport-based carrier has been accident free since 2000.

Finnair (Φινλανδία)

Finnair: As Finland's national airline, Finnair doesn't get as much attention in the media as some of its Scandinavian counterparts. But don't discount the Helsinki-based carrier. It has one of the best safety records in the business and hasn't suffered any major accidents since the 1960s.

British Airways (Βρετανία)

British Airways is one of the biggest and most decorated airlines in Europe. Although it's been in the news in recent years for a couple of incidents, the airline has only suffered one fatal crash — in 1976— since its formation in 1974.

Cathay Pacific (Χονγκ Κονγκ)

Cathay Pacific: AirlineRatings.com recently awarded Cathay Pacific with the honor of best business class accommodations in the world. As comfortable as its business class service may be, the airline is just as competent in terms of safety. Outside of terrorist attacks, Cathay Pacific has not suffered a fatal accident since the 1960s.

Emirates Airlines (Ντουμπάι)

Emirates Airlines: Since its inception in 1985, Emirates has grown to become one of the biggest players in the industry. And in those 30 years, the airline has maintained a near-perfect safety record — not suffering a single fatal accident.

Etihad (Άμπου Ντάμπι)

Etihad: Like its Emirates neighbor, Abu Dhabi's Etihad has maintained an unblemished safety record. It's truly remarkable how quickly the decade-old airline has grown in scale and reputation.

EVA Air (Ταιβάν)

EVA Air: Taiwan's EVA Air was recently named the best long haul airline in Asia by AirlineRatings.com. The airline has not suffered any major accidents since its founding in 1988.

Lufthansa (Γερμανία)

Lufthansa: Germany's Lufthansa is a European aviation juggernaut. In operation since 1955, the Frankfurt-based carrier was recently named Europe's best long haul airline by the website. It has not suffered any fatal accidents since 1993.

1*Qantas (Αυστραλία)

Qantas: Finally, the winner is Australia's Qantas. Qantas is the Volvo of the airline industry — a company whose reputation and mystique is built upon its clean safety record. This is for good reason. The 93 year-old airline has not had a fatal crash since 1951.
