Korean AirKorean Air has been named Airline of the Year of 2025 by AirlineRatings.com, and has also won Best Economy Class in its World’s Best Airline Cabin Class Awards. The airline also secured eighth position in the publication’s Top 25 Safest Full-Service Airlines rankings in January this year.
AirlineRatings.com, an Australia-based aviation media outlet, conducted a comprehensive evaluation of over 350 airlines worldwide based on various criteria including safety, product ratings, passenger reviews, fleet age, and environmental commitment. Korean Air was recognized for its commitment to enhancing the passenger experience and its strategic growth initiatives.
The publication commended Korean Air’s economy class experience, highlighting the spacious seat configurations in comparison to other airlines and attentive onboard service. The evaluation also noted the airline’s comprehensive amenities on its long-haul routes, along with enhanced dining and expansive inflight entertainment options.
A standout feature of Korean Air’s economy class is the Boeing 787-10, which offers industry-leading seats with a 120-degree recline capability and 13.3-inch high-resolution monitors, significantly enhancing passenger comfort and entertainment options.

Korean Air’s strategic fleet modernization program continues to drive service improvements and operational efficiency. The airline’s latest addition of next-gen aircraft, including the Airbus A350-900, A321neo and Boeing 787-10, have strengthened its network coverage while setting new standards for inflight experience and operational reliability.
Beyond passenger experience, the airline has demonstrated business strength and future readiness. The successful acquisition of Asiana Airlines – one of the largest mergers in Asian aviation history – marks a significant milestone as the airline embarks on a bold new journey.
“Korean Air’s delivery of exceptional service across all cabin classes, from economy to premium, is backed by continuous investment in next-generation aircraft and fleet modernization,” said AirlineRatings.com CEO, Sharon Petersen. “With the successful acquisition of Asiana Airlines, the airline has established a historic milestone in shaping its future.”
This recognition follows Korean Air’s previous accolades, including being ranked second in AirlineRatings’ Top 25 Airlines and winning Best Long-Haul Carrier in North Asia in 2024. The airline remains committed to strengthening its position as a leading global carrier through continued innovation and service excellence.
