Summing up 2017 Federal agency air transport published brief statistics of work civil aviation RF. The big picture for the participants rating of Russian airlines 2018 looks good. The air transportation market continues to develop, and almost all reliable Russian airlines included in the list demonstrated an average increase in the number of passengers and kilometers flown by 15%. At the same time, the weight of the top five airlines continues to grow. If in 2017 they occupied 67.4% of the total volume, then in 2018 it was already 85%.

Opens the rating of the largest airlines in Russia Nordwind Airlines, aka " North wind" Over the past year, the number of passengers amounted to 3.5 million people and increased by 95% compared to 2016. Passenger turnover also showed growth, increasing by 44%.

One of the largest charter carriers in Russia, which transported more than 2.2 million passengers in 2017, was called to the carpet by the Federal Air Transport Agency in the summer of 2016 due to constant long flight delays of up to several tens of hours. The carrier promised to take action. In case of inability to arrange regular flights to exact time the company faces restrictions on transportation.

Azur Air was a subsidiary of UTair, but two years ago it set out on its own. In 2017, the number of passengers of the company amounted to 3.6 million people, almost 2/3 more compared to 2016.

Globus is part of the S7 Group, being a subsidiary of the airline giant Siberia, which took second place in the ranking of the best airlines. 2017 turned out to be favorable for the company - the number of passengers increased by 20.2%, amounting to 4.1 million people.

The Aeroflot subsidiary, which took over the baton from Dobroleta, which died as a result of UES sanctions, is positioned as a budget company. Although the first tickets for the new airline's flights were sold only two years ago, it confidently entered the top 10 airlines in Russia.

The number of passengers in 2017 amounted to 4.3 million people, an increase of 5% compared to 2016. Despite its youth, Pobeda’s flights have already become surrounded by scandals. Users are dissatisfied with the policy of keeping silent about the real price of a flight, demands to pay for the opportunity for families to sit together, flight delays and cases when more tickets are sold for a flight than the number of seats.

In fifth place in the ranking Russian airlines 2018 are " Ural Airlines", transported 7.5 million people in 2017, demonstrating an increase of 25%. In the meantime, the company is demanding that the Federal Air Transport Agency pay for the transportation of WWII veterans to celebrate the anniversary of the Victory in 2015. The Federal Air Transport Agency rejected the application for payment, citing the fact that it did not contain the words “including VAT” and other points of the same importance.

The owner of the world's largest operating helicopter fleet appears to have recovered from the crisis of late 2014. In 2017, the number of passengers transported by this company amounted to 6.8 million people, an increase of 9.1% compared to 2016.

The second subsidiary of giant Aeroflot, which made it into the top ten of the 2018 Russian airline rankings, carried more than 10.6 million people last year, posting an impressive 41.5% growth in passenger numbers - the highest of any ranked airline. At the same time, passenger turnover increased by 55.3%.

In second place in the ranking of the largest airlines in Russia is Siberia, also known as S7 Airlines, which carries out transportation to 83 destinations both in Russia and abroad. Most of the latter, however, are served by partner airlines. In total, 9.3 million passengers were transported in 2017.

Russians continue to fly on Aeroflot planes. In 2017, the company transported more than 30.5 million people, surpassing Siberia, which took second place in the rating, by more than 3 times. It is not surprising, since Aeroflot is the largest and oldest Russian airline, which has been transporting passengers since 1923. Although the company was included in the black sanctions list of Ukraine, this does not prevent the increase in the number of shipments.

According to such criteria as the number of passengers and passenger turnover, the company recorded an increase of 12% over the past year. By the way, Aeroflot can also be called one of the safest airlines in Russia in 2018- not a single major plane crash occurred on its lines, counting, of course, subsidiaries and accidents caused by the actions of third parties. In the airline safety rating published in 2017 by the auditing company JACDEC, Aeroflot is in 37th place.

World Airlines Safety Ranking 2017 (JACDEC)

Modern travel conditions are amazing; in just a few hours you can find yourself at the other end globe. All this is thanks to the tireless work of a huge number of airlines.

Air travel today leads in terms of comfort. Most air carriers offer their customers participation in various loyalty programs and provide discounts on tickets, this completely solves the issue of high cost of flights. However, the ticket price should not always be the dominant indicator, more important point is the level of security offered by a particular company. Authorized organizations Constantly conduct statistical research on the reliability of airlines. If it does not meet certain requirements, it is simply deprived of its license.

Which one is the most reliable airline in Russia? Let's figure it out.

Aeroflot Airlines

Over many years of excellent work, it has earned its status. It is she who heads the list of “The most reliable airlines in Russia”. Aeroflot was founded in 1923. Today this company is known all over the world. It has won international awards more than once and is included in the list of the best airlines in the world. Aeroflot provides its customers with international flight safety standards. Besides passenger transportation the company also operates cargo flights to more than 50 countries. The base has its own school that trains professional pilots.

The company's air fleet consists of 149 aircraft, most of which are modern Airbus and Boeing airliners. The fleet is constantly updated with new equipment, both domestic and foreign, which undergoes international standardization.

Classes of passenger transportation

Aeroflot offers its passengers flights in the following classes:

1. Economic. Passengers in this class are provided with blankets, glasses, pillows and earplugs during overnight flights. Depending on the duration, directions and time of departure, they may offer cold or hot snacks, breakfasts or dinners. Juices and drinks are available throughout the flight.
2. "Kommersant" is an economic class of increased comfort. Airplanes of this level mainly fly in the European direction. They provide seats at the front of the plane, priority baggage service, which you can even take with you on the plane (up to 15 kg). Improved food for passengers (flight duration - from 3 hours). Dried fruits, nuts and drinks are also provided free of charge. Blankets, pillows, and earplugs are also provided on daytime flights.
3. Business Class. Passengers can take advantage of amenity kits consisting of toiletries, shoehorns, socks, earplugs, wet wipes, toothpaste and a brush. Meals consist of freshly prepared dishes. All types of drinks are available throughout the flight.
4. President class - increased comfort business class. The planes are equipped with special seats that transform into 4 positions: for takeoff and landing, reading, comfortable sleep and relaxation.
5. Premier class. Flight time is from 2 to 5 hours. The planes fly between priority European destinations.

For regular customers, there is an Aeroflot Bonus loyalty program, which allows you to accumulate miles and participate in promotions.

Analyzing the reviews about this airline, we can say that positive aspects predominate. Passengers talk about the high quality of service, good nutrition, friendly staff, reasonable flight prices. Some people are not happy with the prohibition on board an airplane, but this opinion is purely individual. Other passengers, on the contrary, greet him.

"Ural Airlines"

The list will continue with this air carrier. The company is not only one of the largest in Russia, it is also among the first in reliability. The main hub is located at Moscow Domodedovo Airport. carry out passenger transportation in more than 183 destinations in 24 countries. Every year, the growth of passengers choosing Ural Airlines increases by an average of 20%.

And today the park has 35 modern airliners, consisting mainly of Airbuses. However, passenger reviews sometimes indicate the opposite. It happens that old planes are launched on flights, which, naturally, people do not like. Sometimes there are not enough blankets. But there are much more positive impressions. This includes friendly staff, cleanliness, flights without delays, and reasonable prices.

The most reliable airlines in Russia, presented above, surpass many of their foreign competitors in terms of safety.

S7 Airlines

The airline is based in Novosibirsk and has been transporting passengers for more than 12 years. Not only does it lead in domestic traffic, but it is also one of the top 50 airlines in the world. Today, the S7 Airlines fleet consists of the most modern and new airliners, the average age is only 6 years. The fleet consists of 32 aircraft, the mainstay of which is the Airbus A319.

S7 Airlines has won international awards several times. Many passengers speak quite well about the quality of the company's aircraft and the service provided. There are no age restrictions, like new ones, many budget options flight.

"Transaero"

The rating of the most reliable airlines in Russia continues with the private carrier Transaero. Despite the fact that the company is quite young (founded in 1990), it has already managed to gain international recognition and be included in the top ten safest airlines not only in Russia, but throughout the world. The planes operate both domestic and international flights.

This is the first company in Russia to begin using Boeing aircraft for passenger transportation. She was also the first to introduce e-tickets. Every year the number of Transaero passengers increases at tremendous speed. However, at the end of 2015 the company went bankrupt, and negotiations are currently underway on a buyout. When this happens, you will be able to enjoy safe flights again, since the company focused on this indicator. It is expected that soon the most reliable airlines in Russia will once again accept Transaero into their ranks.

"Krasaero" and "Yamal"

Despite the fact that these two carriers specialize in narrow destinations, they can also be characterized as the most reliable airlines in Russia. In 1934, an association was formed to serve the northern regions of Russia and the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Today Krasaero delivers not only passengers, but also food products and mail to all cities of Russia. The air fleet consists not only of airplanes, but the company also operates helicopter flights to the Far North.

Yamal Airlines was founded in 1997 to provide transportation in the Tyumen region and its autonomous regions. Today she also commits international flights. The main advantage is the new aircraft fleet. Yamal has received the title more than once the best company domestic transportation, providing its passengers with comfortable and safe conditions.

The most reliable airlines in Russia plan to further improve the level of flight safety.

In Rostov-on-Don of the FlyDubai airliner, suggestions appeared on the Internet that the Arab low-cost airline paid insufficient attention to safety issues. However, there is no documentary evidence of this. Lenta.ru studied the rating of the safest airlines in the world and found out which carriers are safe to fly on.

Over the past 13 years, the annual rating of the German research company Jacdec has been considered the most authoritative in the world of aviation. When preparing the Safety Index, experts analyze data on all aviation accidents over the past 30 years (the latest rating took into account data from accidents that occurred since 1986). The safety audit indicators of international organizations IOSA (IATA Operational Safety Audit) and ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) also play a significant role.

The later the disaster occurred, the more weight it has when calculating the corresponding place in the ranking. In total, the compilers of the Safety Index take into account eight parameters. Passenger traffic, the number of casualties in all incidents and the number of aircraft completely lost or destroyed are taken into account. So-called serious incidents also play an important role - this refers to landings with a failed engine, other breakdowns and rollouts off the runway.

The airline's position in the ranking improves with each passing full year without a single incident. The last parameter that guides the compilers of the index is the rating of the country to which the airline belongs. It, in turn, is formed on the basis of the transparency of the actions of regulatory authorities investigating aviation accidents.

We must immediately make a reservation that FlyDubai is not included in the list of the safest carriers in the world. However, not due to any aviation incidents, but because of its too short history: experts do not consider it possible to evaluate a company created in 2009. However, until March 19, the company’s only incident dated back to January 2015 - then a Boeing 737 flying from Dubai was fired upon while landing at Baghdad airport. The crew was able to land the plane and no damage was avoided.

Leaders 2016

The next Safety Index 2016 was published in February. Just like a year ago, it was topped by the Hong Kong carrier Cathay Pacific Airways (it took second place in the 2014 ranking). The company's safety index (the lower the better) is 0.006.

The carrier's only incident in the last 30 years was a hard landing at Hong Kong airport in 2010. Then, due to poor quality fuel, the pilots of the Airbus A330, which took off from Surabaya (the second largest city in Indonesia), were unable to fully control the engine thrust. As a result, the plane landed at high speed and suffered significant damage, but none of the passengers or crew members were injured.

At the same time, in 1972, Cathay Pacific Airways lost a Convair 880 plane flying from Bangkok to Hong Kong when a bomb hidden in a suitcase exploded on board the plane. The death toll on the plane that crashed near the Vietnamese city of Pleiku was 81 people.

Additionally, in 1948, a Cathay Pacific Airways seaplane was hijacked by terrorists. The attack is believed to be the first such incident in the history of commercial aviation. Four criminals took part in the hijacking; shortly after takeoff, they killed the pilot. As a result, the plane crashed in the river delta of the Chinese province of Guangdong, killing 26 people. The only survivor was the terrorist leader.

Second place for the second year in a row goes to Emirates (index: 0.007). There have been only two serious incidents in the history of the Arab carrier. In 2004, an Airbus A340 skidded off the runway during takeoff at Johannesburg Airport. No one was hurt at the time, but the plane shot down 25 approach lights, resulting in four tires being punctured and the fuselage damaged.

In 2009, another Airbus A340 hit several lights at the end of a runway in Melbourne. The plane took off, but the crew decided to return because the plane received minor damage.

From Russia, Emirates operates flights to the UAE, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Seychelles and Bali, and thanks to a codeshare agreement with S7, connecting flights are possible from more than 30 cities.

The top three - also for the second year in a row - is completed by EVA Air (index: 0.008), the second largest airline in Taiwan.

Founded in 1989, during its existence it has not suffered a single serious incident. A small accident with an Eva Air Boeing 747 occurred in 2012 in the USA: while taxiing, the pilots did not calculate the trajectory and hit the wing of an American Eagle aircraft.

In May 2015, the carrier received an anonymous call reporting a bomb planted on board a Boeing 777, which was flying from Taiwan to Los Angeles at that moment. Immediately after landing, a thorough inspection of the aircraft was carried out, but no explosives were found. In January 2016, a flight from Los Angeles to Taiwan made an unscheduled landing in Sapporo after one of the passengers suffered a medical emergency.

Eva Air does not fly to Russia.

The top ten includes Qatar Airways (index: 0.009), Hainan Airlines (0.010), KLM (0.010), Air New Zealand (0.011), Etihad Airways (0.013), Japan Airlines (0.015) and TAP Portugal (0.015).

Security in Russia

The only Russian airline included in the top 60 safest in the world is Aeroflot. The main Russian carrier occupies 36th place in the rating (0.106). For comparison: the Italian Alitalia has approximately the same rating (0.110), but the French Air France(0.129) and American Airlines (0.139) are losing to Aeroflot.

Previously, Transaero was also included in the top 60 - last year the airline even made it into the top twenty of the rating, taking 17th place with an index of 0.024.

When analyzing safety, Skytrax experts analyze compliance with safety standards by airline employees, and also attend corporate courses where crews practice practical actions in emergency situations. At the same time, Skytrax does not have any separate index, but safety is taken into account when compiling the Quality Rating.

In the Quality Rating itself, places are not ranked; instead, the airline is assigned a rating - from one to five stars. Currently, the list of five-star carriers includes seven air carriers: Cathay Pacific Airways (Hong Kong), ANA All Nippon Airways (Japan), Asiana Airlines ( South Korea), Garuda Indonesia (Indonesia), Hainan Airlines (China), Singapore Airlines (Singapore) and Qatar Airways (Qatar).

Russian S7 and Aeroflot have three stars each, Rossiya Airlines has two.

The Arab low-cost airline FlyDubai, whose plane crashed in Rostov-on-Don, has not yet received a Skytrax assessment.

In connection with the increasing reports of plane crashes, especially low-cost airlines, many have become seriously concerned about flight safety issues. Air transport is generally considered one of the safest modes of travel. To dispel fears and speculation, you can trust trusted carriers. The most reliable airlines in the world are included in the corresponding ratings.

The issue of safe flights is carefully studied not only by ordinary passengers, but also by major statistical agencies. The most authoritative airline reliability ratings are those of the German company Jacdec and the European Air Safety Agency. aviation security, which publish lists of safe carriers based on research. When calculating the coefficients, parameters over the past thirty years are taken into account. Other major international aviation organizations also conduct safety audits.

The calculation is made taking into account various indices with different specific weights. Thus, a recent accident will carry more weight than a disaster that occurred many years ago. When calculating, the following parameters are taken into account:

1. Total number of passengers served.
2. The total number of victims of disasters.
3. Number of ships destroyed or lost.
4. Number of breakdowns and emergency landings, leaving the runway, etc.
5. Rating of the state that owns the company: thoroughness and transparency of incident investigations.

The longer an airline operates without incident, the higher its position in the ranking. The safety index obtained as a result of calculations should be as small as possible, which will indicate the reliability of the company. Carriers with a high index are, accordingly, less safe.

The safest airlines in the world

Cathay Pacific Airways took first place according to the results of various agencies for the second year in a row.

Over the course of many years of its operation, the company from Hong Kong has occupied a leading position in the list of reliable carriers. In 30 years, the only incidents were a hard landing of a ship at the airport and two terrorist attacks on airplanes. The airline safety index is 0.006.

The second position is occupied by Emirates with a safety index of 0.007. Over the years of activity, only two incidents have been associated with this company in which no passengers were injured. The airlines cooperate with S7 and operate regular and charter flights from many Russian cities.

In third place is Eva Air, located in Taiwan. There were no serious incidents in her operation, with the exception of a runway overrun, a false report of a mine-laden vessel, and an emergency landing due to the poor health of one of the passengers. The Eva Air safety index is 0.008. This airline not valid within Russia.

Safe airlines in Russia

Not all internationally recognized airlines operate in Russia. This, however, does not mean that there are no carriers in our country whose reliability you should not fear. Safety index not exceeding acceptable standards, is owned by a number of Russian enterprises. Let's consider which airline in Russia is the most reliable.

In addition to the above parameters, the calculations take into account the punctuality of the carrier, the age and general technical condition of the vessels and their compliance with international documentation and standards. Let's list and consider the most reliable airlines in Russia.

According to EASA ratings, the leader of Russian air transportation in 2017 was Ural Airlines. Its rating is 0.24 points. The company is characterized by high reliability: over a period of 14 years, it has not had a single incident where there were casualties.

The second place today is occupied by S7 Airlines, formerly known as Siberia. Despite the fleet of aircraft, which can be up to 20 years old, their technical condition does not cause concern to international commissions. The company fell on hard times in the early 2000s, with crashes killing about 300 passengers. Today, the flights of this carrier are distinguished by their reliability and quality.

Aeroflot takes different positions depending on different data. In 2016, it was characterized by a safety index of 0.108 points and was among the top 60 reliable global carriers, taking 36th place. This is a high figure, exceeding the parameters of many large foreign companies.

According to 2017 data, in Russia it is in third place and receives 0.38 points. The assessment was largely influenced by disasters that occurred back in the 1990s. Now the company is steadily updating its fleet of aircraft and is characterized by reliability and high quality services.

Transaero was also previously included in the list of the top 60 companies in the world, ranking 17th with a rating of 0.024. As of today, the airlines have ceased operations.

Khanty-Mansiysk carrier Utair today is a large popular company whose fleet of aircraft consists of young equipment. It specializes in short regional flights. The latest major airline incident was the crash of a cargo helicopter.

Alternative safety ratings

In addition to the generally accepted safety index scoring systems, there are other classifications of companies that are provided by some agencies. Thus, British researchers study companies based on their punctuality, where one of the lines was taken by the Russian S7 Airlines.

Skytrax has created a product called Quality Rating. The service is based on monthly calculations of company performance indicators and is constantly updated depending on the data received. The creators of the service emphasize that their calculations are not based on data on disasters, since such incidents may not be the fault of the airlines.

Careful analysis here includes the parameters of personnel compliance with safety standards and the availability of preparatory courses in case of an unforeseen situation. Agency experts visit companies to identify and compile a rating. In this case, carriers are not assigned marks or indices, but stars.

Seven companies were awarded five stars, including two companies included in the Jacdac and EASA ratings. These are Cathay Pacific Airways and Qatar Airways.

Russian airlines are also on the list. Thus, S7 Airlines and Aeroflot received three stars in the rating, and the Rossiya company received two stars.

Probability and causes of disasters

The disaster of the FlyDubai ship in Russia caused quite a stir. After the incident, a number of sources claimed that the crash was caused by neglect of flight safety measures. These data have not been confirmed, but the questions for low-cost airlines have not decreased.

It is worth noting that rumors about the incompetence of low-cost airline pilots and outdated equipment are completely false. The personnel and equipment of such companies meet all international requirements, and the difference between such flights and standard ones lies in the price and service.

Most accidents occur during takeoff and landing. Many of them are caused by objective reasons: weather conditions, engine malfunction. The human factor cannot be excluded. Each incident is thoroughly investigated, and errors are taken into account subsequently. Modern standards and rules for organizing flights eliminate the risk of a crash as much as possible and set a high bar for each airline.

In contact with

Safety during air travel is one of the most important factors. The reliability of an air carrier is determined by the absence of accidents during last years, passenger turnover, EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) certification and membership in international organizations IOSA and ICAO.

Last year, the domestic air carrier Transaero entered the top 20 world airline leaders in terms of reliability and safety, and took first position in the Russian ranking. But in October 2015, the company ceased operations due to bankruptcy. For this reason, Transaero is not included in the TOP 10.
