Emirates1
There are many things that we must take into account when planning a trip or a getaway. Luckily, nowadays we have it very easy when it comes to choosing destinations, beaches, tourist attractions and hotels thanks to the rankings that different companies specializing in travel offer us. For example, TripAdvisor has been building lists for ten years through the opinions and comments of its own users, with the intention that we are better informed in making travel decisions. Of course, until this year it had never focused on airlines, which we must also choose carefully, taking into account what we expect from them: punctuality, good treatment of staff, entertainment during the trip, good prices …

Thus, after researching the experience of users in some 500 air transport companies, the travel portal has selected the 10 best companies, including famous airlines such as Emirates, which has achieved first place. Do you want to discover its top 10? Well, all you have to do is join us!
