"Adversity does not build character, It reveals it."
For the 3rd time in 10 years, Cathay Pacific has been named World's Best Airline, winning
the 2009 Airline of the Year title in the latest World Airline Awards - Cathay Pacific being a previous winner of this prestige
global title in 2003 and 2005.
Edward Plaisted (CEO of Skytrax) said ... " the Cathay Pacific victory this year is
the third occasion in the last ten years they have won this prestige title. A factor behind the Cathay Pacific win is clearly
the consistency of product and service that they provide to their customers. Not only are Cathay Pacific satisfying their
passengers onboard flights, but the ratings they achieved for their airport operations in Hong Kong also played a considerable
part in this success. At a time of considerable difficulty across world economies and of course the airline industry itself,
it is nice to have some truly good news to spread in announcing the 2009 World Airline Airline Awards. We extend our congratulations
to Cathay Pacific Airways on their crowning as 2009 Airline of the Year. These Awards represent the voice and opinions of
the travelling public, and bears great testimony to the quality of service being delivered in the front-line".
