Top 10 Most Dangerous Airlines in the World

#6 – Bluewing Airlines

[quads id=1]

This smaller, regional airline typically transports flyers to the Caribbean, Venezuela, Brazil, Guyana, and Suriname. Bluewing Airlines has been getting on and off the European Union’s blacklist and now it’s banned from traveling into the EU.

Bluewing’s safety record is loaded with a wide variety of issues, ranging from crashes to plane safety problems and recording many deaths among both passengers and staff. A few of their carriers burned down due to violations of specific safety regulations, such as the lack of the GPWS on board.

Looking at the frequent poor landing conditions, EU ban, and poor safety record, the airline seems too far away from getting more than 2 two stars any time soon.

#5 – SCAT Airlines

Special Cargo Air Transport Airlines is based in Kazakhstan. It doesn’t only have a bad name but also a very bad record. Surprisingly, this has nothing to do with the number of crashes it has experienced (which is just a one and only crash.)

Actually, the European Commission’s determination to ban the airline is due to the overall terrible lack of confidence in the regulatory processes. If you are, for whatever reason, traveling anytime soon to Kazakhstan, make sure to avoid SCAT at all costs. Air Astana, for instance, is a safer airline.
