DESCRIPTION:
FORT WORTH, Texas, December 3, 2021 /3BL Media/ - Customers have spoken, and American Airlines has won the prestigious Five Star rating in The APEX Official Airline Ratings™, Global Airline category for the fourth consecutive year. The award is based on customer feedback on their overall travel experience. Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX) is a global nonprofit and one of the world’s largest international airline associations.
“We are incredibly thankful for our customers and proud to be recognized for the fourth consecutive year with the Five Star rating,” said Clarissa Sebastian, Managing Director of Premium Customer Experience and Onboard Products. “The honor is a testament to the hard work of our team and the investment we’ve made in products and services that offer ease and enjoyment throughout the travel journey.”
The APEX Official Airline Ratings™ were created based on neutral, third-party passenger feedback and insights gathered through APEX’s partnership with TripIt® from Concur®, the world’s highest-rated travel-organizing app. For the 2022 awards, passengers rated nearly one million flights across more than 600 airlines from around the world using a five-star scale. The APEX Official Airline Ratings™ were independently certified by a professional external auditing company.
