SIA among 2016’s 20 safest airlines: survey

Several regional carriers didn’t do as well, though.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) is ranked as one of the 20 safest airlines in 2016, according to a survey by AirlineRatings.com.

Overall, the website reviewed 407 airlines, and found that 148 have the seven-star safety ranking but almost 50 have three stars or less. There are 10 airlines from Indonesia, Nepal, and Surinam with only one star.

The survey revealed ratings for other regional and local carriers as well—SilkAir received seven stars, Tiger and Scoot received five stars, Malaysia Airlines received five stars, Thai Airways received four stars, and Garuda Indonesia received three stars.

The list was topped by Australia’s Qantas for the third consecutive year, while the rest of the airlines noted were unranked. Others that made the list were All Nippon Airlines, Cathay Pacific Airways, Emirates, Japan Airlines, Lufthansa, Swiss, and Virgin Atlantic.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
