    9th? I flew with Iberia to Rio from Madrid, and the plane was older than my grandpa! Only one broken TV, no alcohol, and no permission to walk in the plane. I flew to Paris from Istanbul with Air France, and it was okay. But I flew to New York, Paris, and many other cities with Turkish Airlines, and it was the best. Even in economy class, the food is good, and everything is at your service.

    The best airline in Europe. Their service and food are good since they have a chef on board. The best indeed.

    The best so far.

  5. Iberia

In aviation history, there have been no Air Serbia plane crashes.
