Skytrax announce the venue and date for the 2024 World Airline Awards
Skytrax have announced that the 2024 World Airline Awards will take place on Monday 24th June 2024, with the event being held at the iconic Fairmont Windsor Park.
A beautiful retreat in the English countryside located on the edge of historic Windsor Great Park, Fairmont Windsor Park is a 15-mins drive from Heathrow Airport.
2024 is a special year, being the 25th anniversary of the World Airline Awards. Widely regarded as ‘the Oscars of the aviation industry’, the World Airline Awards remain independent and impartial. Airlines do not pay to be included in any aspect of the customer surveys, and there are no costs involved to attend the awards event or subsequent marketing rights.
Over 350 guests attended the 2023 World Airline Awards event held at Paris Air Show with airlines represented by their President, Chairman, CEO’s and other top management, with more than 100 cabin and ground staff from 35 airlines adding great colour and elegance to the event.
Edward Plaisted of Skytrax said: “We are delighted to be holding the 25th World Airline Awards in the United Kingdom this year. We selected the Fairmont Windsor Park as our 2024 awards venue, a luxury 5-Star country house hotel set in the English countryside but still very close to Heathrow Airport.”

A key factor behind retaining independence for the World Airline Awards is based around some media driven awards that in many instances are either very localised and claim world’s best results, are based on very limited customer voting, or in some cases demonstrate direct allegiance to their paid advertisers. Some award systems even base results on extracting selected data from unverified and unchecked customer reviews.
The Skytrax focus has always been on detail, quality and transparency that we believe is unmatched, and the fact that we maintain strict adherence to our company mission of all projects being without fear or favour. In today’s world it is very unfashionable that Skytrax operate the awards on a not-for-profit basis, but Skytrax place the prestige and reputation of the World Airline Awards above such factors.
About The World Airline Awards
The World Airline Awards began in 1999, when Skytrax launched its first global, annual airline customer satisfaction survey. Over 100 customer nationalities have participated so far in the 2023-2024 survey, where travellers across the globe take part each year in the world’s largest airline passenger satisfaction survey to decide the winners. There are no survey entry fees, no charge for airlines to attend the awards event, and no charges for any use of the award logos and results by winning airlines.
