A few airlines you might want to avoid.
So, going on a little trip? There's a list with a few airlines that you might want to
consider skipping. The list is generated by the EU and can be found here :
http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air_portal/safety/black_list_en.htm.
I took the liberty of generating a list of countries/states with corresponding airlines,
as part of a little bit of research I had to do for a company, to generate a better picture
of which countries to completely avoid and which to proceed with caution when it comes to
using air transportation. I thought I'd share a bit of it with you. Please note that this
list only includes the airlines that the EU has been able to track, trace and verify through
official channels. These airlines are not allowed within European airspace. If you believe
bricks can fly however, feel free to fly with them anyway.
Have a nice flight :)

yeah african airlines are prohibited due to poor service they do - as sometimes they fly for longer period without any repair/hahahaha but somehow its an excuse for some european carriers to sell more / example in Tanzania KLM flies daily and most of the time is overbooked-- as they prohibit but majority of african aircraft ofcourse are repaired and fly well - and even european tourist fly with them when they come for tourism in african countries
so yeah bricks can fly :)

Hasn't been included in my report. Don't forget that this isn't about how much an airline sucks or doesn't, but about safety. You can suck at many different levels without compromising safety. I'd rather fly an airline that sucks in comfort but gets me on my destination alive, than one that has seats the size of couches, awesome foot,.. but a landing 6 feet lower than ground level.
On a side note; I did come across an article somewhere that most problems/issues with US airliners have been caused by external sources. I'm not sure what that means exactly, but I guess it could be the manufacturers of the aircraft or people blowing themselves up or something.

I can add to this list IBERIA (Spanish company, who lost my luggage 3 times last year) and they are also veryyyy rude. Lufthansa wasn't that great either (destroyed all my luggage and very rude). With other words, i have new luggage every trip i go on! lol

oups, my bad! Well, i didn't travel yet with a company that wasn't 100% safe(since none of them have actually planes that are in perfect conditions:P). We ca take these companies in consideration for who travels to Europe.:) Considering that none of the airlines are actually flying without ANY events of this kind, 6 or 7 cases a year are not bad numbers out of 1000 or more flights they have per year. Right? It is just a question!!!
