World's Best International Airlines 2025

Qatar Airways has once again claimed the top spot among international airlines for 2025, marking its ninth time as the best airline in the world. And Singapore Airlines also remains in second place.

Interestingly Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific Airways have jumped to places, from number 5 in 2024 to number 3 on the list of World's Best Airlines for 2025. In October 2024, Cathay Pacific Airways introduced three weekly flights between the Saudi capital city of Riyadh and Hong Kong, operating every Monday, Thursday and Saturday.

This new positioning for Cathay means that the United Arab Emirates' national carrier, Emirates, has dropped from third place to fourth position on the list for 2025.
