Qatar Airways announced that the airlines company is thrilled to have won four prestigious prizes at this year’s 2019 Skytrax World Airline Awards on June 18, including the highest accolade of ‘World’s Best Airline’ becoming the only airline in the competition’s history to win it five times (2011, 2012, 2015, 2017 and 2019).
The airline was named ‘Best Airline in the Middle East’ for a third successive year, while its ‘World’s Best Business Class’ accolade is the fourth year in succession that it has won that award. In retaining its ‘World’s Best Business Class Seat’ award for its patented Qsuite product, the airline beat strong competition from all over the world.
