Korean Air wins US awards for best first, business class cabins
By Park Li-na, The
Korea Herald - Korean Air announced Tuesday that it has topped the 2024 USA
Today 10 Best Readers’ Choice Awards in the business and first class category
for the second year in a row.
The airline also
placed second for best in-flight food for the second consecutive year, while
its cabin crew ranking improved from sixth to fourth place.
The USA Today 10
Best Readers’ Choice Awards honors top performers across a range of categories.
Nominees are selected by a panel of experts, with the final winners chosen by
USA Today readers.
Celebrating its 55th
anniversary, Korean Air has earned recognition from industry professionals and
passengers alike. This year, the airline introduced its upgraded Prestige
Suites 2.0, which offer enhanced privacy, fully reclinable seats and an
improved in-flight entertainment system.
In addition to
enhancing its premium cabin services, Korean Air has expanded its in-flight
meal offerings. The airline launched Korean-style vegan meals last year. Its
wine selection has also been curated by world-renowned sommelier Marc Almert,
further refining the in-flight dining experience.
The latest
recognition adds to Korean Air’s growing list of accolades. Earlier this year,
the airline was ranked the world’s second-best in Airline Rating’s 2024 Airline
Excellence Awards and won Best Airline Onboard Menu for its first class cabins
at Global Traveler’s 2024 Leisure and Lifestyle Travel Awards.
“Korean Air remains
committed to providing exceptional service and a superior passenger experience
as we continue to serve 111 cities across 39 countries,” a company
representative said.
