The airline was first awarded five stars in 2019, "The confirmation of our Five Star Global Airline status by one of the world's leading aviation associations is recognition of our superior service quality and strong position in the global airline industry," Aeroflot CEO Vitaly Saveliev said.
"This accolade from APEX is particularly important to us as it reflects the opinions of the millions of passengers around the world who choose to fly with Aeroflot and enjoy our consistently excellent standards of service. We continue to seek to meet and exceed our passengers' expectations, and to uphold our status as a top-tier global airline."
Earlier this year APEX named Aeroflot Best Global Airline in Europe and awarded it for Best Seat Comfort in Europe. The airline is a member of the SkyTeam global airline alliance and operates flights to 146 destinations in 52 countries on a fleet of some 248 aircraft. During 2017, Aeroflot carried 32.8 million passengers, although with all its subsidiary airlines, in total more than 50 million people flew with the Aeroflot Group last year.
