Two of the World’s Top Five Airlines Coming to Eritrea

By Bereket Kidane,

In the Passenger’s Choice Awards for the year 2014 where SkyTrax surveys nearly 19 million passengers from 160 countries, Qatar Airways came in second place overall behind Cathay Pacific, voted the world’s best airline, while Turkish Air came in fifth place.  Qatar Airways was ranked in the top spot for the best airline to fly business class.

Turkish Airlines was voted the Best Airline in Europe for third year in a row by customers at the 2013 World Airline Awards.

This is very exciting news indeed if you are an Eritrean.  Eritreans can now benefit from excellent airline travel experience by these world class airlines.

Suddenly, I am thinking of an Asmara-Doha flight for the FIFA World Cup 2022 games to be held in Qatar.
