Finnair - Japan’s favourite Western airline

Finnair was recently rated as Japan’s favourite Western airline in the Top 10 Airline Survey conducted by AB-ROAD Magazine, a respected travel magazine published in Japan.

Overall, Finnair was ranked fourth in the survey. All Nippon was first, Singapore Airlines second and Japan Airlines third. It is notable that Finnair performed best among Western airlines. The other airlines placed in the top ten were Emirates, Aircalin, Virgin Atlantic, Eva Airways, KLM and Cathay Pacific.

Finnair was ranked best in three of the eight categories. The company’s meal and drinks were the world’s best, in the opinion of the Japanese, as was in-flight service. In addition, Finnair was an airline that people would most like to fly with again.

Finnair received a special mention as an airline that tries to serve on its flights meals that are designed to take the tastes of Japanese passengers into account.

The survey was carried out in March by asking Japanese people who travelled abroad to evaluate their experiences and images of the airlines. Nearly 5,000 people answered the questionnaire.

Finnair operates to Japan’s three most important cities, Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. With additional flights planned for next spring, Finland will become the third largest Western airline operating between Europe and Japan.
