Air Berlin wins award

On May 20th, 2010 Air Berlin, the second largest German airline, won the “World Airline Award” for the sixth time in succession. This award is bestowed by Skytrax, the London-based consultancy company. Other contenders for first place in the category “Best Low-Cost Airline” included Virgin America, easyJet and JetBlue.

Thomas Ney, Senior Executive In-flight Service Air Berlin Group: “The award means a great deal to Air Berlin, because it comes directly from the passengers. The continuity with which Air Berlin is awarded prizes by Skytrax shows that our commitment to quality and service is appreciated by millions of business travelers and vacationers throughout the world.”

The “World Airline Awards” have been conferred since 1999. In the period from July 2009 to April 2010 more than 17.9 million airline travelers from 100 countries took part in the world’s largest passenger survey.

Air Berlin is Germany’s second largest airline. As of 31st March 2010 the company had more than 8,500 employees and was operating 150 aircraft. In 2009 alone Air Berlin received more than 10 awards for service and quality. With an average age of only 5.3 years, Air Berlin has one of the newest fleets in Europe. The airline’s modern aircraft are extremely fuel-efficient and so provide a lasting contribution to the reduction of aviation emissions. Air Berlin currently offers nonstop service from six North American gateways, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Ft Myers and Vancouver, Canada.
