Etihad's A380
Etihad has won three awards for its First Class product at the annual Skytrax World Airline Awards.
The airline was presented with the World’s Best First Class, Best First Class Onboard Catering, and Best First Class Airline Seat.
The event was held at the Musee de l’Air et de l’Espace, as part of the bi-annual Paris Airshow.
Linda Celestino, Etihad Airways vice president guest experience delivery, said: “This is a great honour for us – particularly as these awards mark the culmination of a global consumer satisfaction survey of millions of travellers around the world.
“These awards not only recognise our drive for innovation and a superior guest experience, but also reinforce our commitment to First Class travel – an experience for which we have set the industry benchmark.”
This marks the third time the airline has won all three First Class award categories at the World Airline Awards.
Edward Plaisted, chief executive officer, Skytrax, said: “Etihad Airways continues to be a market leader in first class air travel, illustrated by their excellent performance in this First Class section of the awards. It is a remarkable display of consistency to yet again secure this very prestigious set of awards and we congratulate them on this achievement.”
