Ethiopian Airlines has been recognised as the 2026 Four Star Global Airline by the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX).

 

The award was presented at the APEX/IFSA Global EXPO held in Long Beach, California, following a rigorous passenger-driven review process.

 

APEX certified nearly one million flights across close to 600 airlines worldwide to determine the 2026 Star Ratings, making this recognition a direct reflection of passenger feedback and satisfaction.

 

Mesfin Tasew, Group Chief Executive Officer of Ethiopian Airlines said, “This recognition is another testament to the hard work, professionalism, and dedication of our entire team across all areas of the airline. We are deeply honored that our passengers, whose trust we value above all, have rated us among the world’s best. It inspires us to continue raising the bar in customer experience, innovation, and operational excellence.” -TradeArabia News Service
