World’s Biggest Airlines

I saw this chart on the French Yahoo, and thought it was interesting to see who the world’s largest airlines are by number of passengers.

I posted the article, and yes I had misunderstood what it represented. The very first comment corrected me on it, but thanks for repeating it nearly four years on.

Continental airlines and Singapore airlines are the best in the world!!! Both have great services and airplanes!!!Singapore airlines already got their first Airbus 380!!and Lan Chile is amazing they already have the dreamliner in their fleet!!Aeroflot sucks and has no chance of making it to the chart!!They have some of the worst pilots!!!

continental airlines should be in American airlines place it has more airline groups such as continental express, continental connection, and continental Micronesia, it has a bigger fleet size than American, only that not many people fly with continental in the united states since they have delta, united, northwest, southwest, and frontier.

Quote: Lufthansa is one of the best airlines in the whole world!!! I think it should be higher up! Only because the americans have a bigger country it doesnt mean that they are better!!!!!
Lufthansa IS THE BEST!!! Dear Lisa,
Just because you think that Lufthansa is the best, doesn’t mean it is. No offence. But, as said before, it is calculated by the number of passengers flown by how many miles. So, American, United And Northwest are going to be in the top three.

Quote: malaysia airlines is better than qantas
That is your personal opinion, this is a survey of how many passengers use it per however many miles. I personally think that Qantas IS better than Malaysian. I’ve been on it, twice, and the service wasn’t good. Qantas, even though with its weakening safety record, would have to be the best oceanic airline the world has ever seen. With its branches, QantasLink and Jetstar.
