5 Most Safest Airlines In The World

British Airways

British Airways is the United Kingdom’s largest airline, and is the UK’s flag carrier. It was formed when the UK’s two government owned airlines, the British Oversea Airways Corporation and British European Airways were joined together. It is now owned by a company called International Airlines Group, which also owns Iberia Airlines, and is one of the largest companies in the United Kingdom.

It operates domestic flights within the UK as well as international flights to Europe and the rest of the world. British Airways has a large fleet of aircraft, including planes built by Boeing, Airbus and Embraer. They will also soon be operating the Airbus A380, the largest passenger plane ever built. For a while during the 1990s British Airways’ planes had tails each painted in a design to symbolise a country of the world. This was called the World Tails scheme, and it wasn’t very popular.

However, they now have tails that are based on the Union Jack. British Airways also flew the Concorde, an aircraft that could fly faster than the speed of sound. However, this plane was taken out of the fleet in 2003, after being used for 27 years. It was the first airline to introduce flat beds in First Class, although many airlines now have this feature. It features heavily in James Bond Films. The airline was awarded ‘Airline of the Year 2006′. It operates more Boeing 747s than any other airline.
