SIA ranks world’s third-best full-service airline for 2026

Separately, Scoot ranked fifth amongst low-cost carriers.

Singapore Airlines was ranked the world’s third-best full-service airline for 2026, according to AirlineRatings.com’s latest global rankings.

The carrier placed behind Qatar Airways and Cathay Pacific, which took first and second place, respectively, in the full-service category.

Separately, the airlines’ wholly owned subsidiary, Scoot, ranked fifth amongst low-cost carriers, placing behind airlines including HK Express, Jetstar, AirAsia Group, and AirBaltic.

Singapore Changi Airport was named the world’s best airport for 2026, marking its second consecutive year at the top of the rankings.

The ranking cited the airport’s passenger experience, operational performance, and connectivity.

AirlineRatings.com said its rankings are based on in-flight product and passenger experience, assessed using measurable onboard criteria rather than public voting.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
