AirlineRating.com's editorial team, one of the world's most awarded and experienced, also examined airlines' operational histories, incident records and operational excellence to arrive at its top ten safest airlines.

該網(wǎng)站的編輯團(tuán)隊(duì)是世界上經(jīng)驗(yàn)最豐富并受到最多肯定的團(tuán)隊(duì)之一，他們調(diào)查了航空公司的運(yùn)作歷史、事件記錄和運(yùn)作管理水平，并得出這份榜單。

According to AirlineRatings.com editor, Geoffrey Thomas, "our top ten safest airlines are always at the forefront of safety innovation and launching new planes."

網(wǎng)站編輯杰弗里?托馬斯（Geoffrey Thomas）表示，“我們的十大最安全航空公司在安全創(chuàng)新和發(fā)布新機(jī)型方面通常居于前沿。”

"These airlines are a byword for excellence," he added. "There is no doubt that Qantas is a standout in safety enhancements and an industry benchmark for best practice," said Mr Thomas.

他又說，“這些公司是優(yōu)秀的代名詞，毫無疑問，澳洲航空在提升安全方面表現(xiàn)突出，是良好實(shí)踐的行業(yè)典范。”

Over its 94-year history Qantas has amassed an extraordinary record of firsts in safety and operations and is now accepted as the world's most experienced airline. "Qantas has been the lead airline in virtually every major advancement in airline safety over the past 60 years," said Mr Thomas.

在澳航的94年歷史中，它多次在安全運(yùn)營方面取得突出表現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)在已被認(rèn)為是世界上最有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的航空公司。托馬斯說，“在過去60年里，澳航引領(lǐng)了航空業(yè)幾乎所有安全上的進(jìn)步。”

Responding to public interest, the AirlineRatings.com editors also identified their top ten safest low cost airlines.

These are in alphabetical order: Aer Lingus, Alaska Airlines, Icelandair, Jetstar, Jetblue, Kulula.com, Monarch Airlines, Thomas Cook, TUI Fly and Westjet.

"Unlike a number of low cost carriers these airlines have all passed the stringent International Air Transport Association Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) audit and have excellent safety records," said Mr Thomas. "Low cost does not mean low safety."

托馬斯說，“與大量廉價(jià)運(yùn)輸公司不同，這些航空公司都通過了嚴(yán)格的國際航空運(yùn)輸協(xié)會運(yùn)行安全審計(jì)認(rèn)證（IOSA），有良好的安全紀(jì)錄，價(jià)格低不等于安全性低。”

Of the 449 airlines surveyed 149 have the top seven-star safety ranking, but almost 50 have just three stars or less.
