BREAKING NEWS – London, England – Cathay Pacific has been named the World’s Best Airline this year by Skytrax, a non-partisan U.K. based research firm. The annual rankings are conducted by surveys from more than 19 million travelers from more than 160 countries. None of the top American based airlines made the best 10 list. However, in separate categories, United Airlines took top honors for coming up with the most creative excuses on why they lost a passengers luggage, and U.S. Airways was ranked the No. 1 for having the best union reps for defending intoxicated pilots.
