Here we review some of the most famous airlines around the world which enjoy perfectly clean safety records.

Hawaiian Airlines

Hawaiian Airlines have been flying since 1929 and have never been hit by a fatal crash, making them - if the statistics are correct - the longest airline in the business; in terms of not losing a passenger.

Hawaiian Airlines has begun to fly light aircraft on sightseeing trips over the island of Oahu, and today serves a number of destinations in the Pacific Ocean, including New Zealand, Australia, Asia and the West Coast of the United States.

Although the company suffered from bankruptcy in 1993 and 2003, it did not compromise the safety of citizens.

Southwest Airlines

These lines have been flying since 1971 and during its 50-year extended operation, not one accident has been known, although it has more than 700 aircrafts on its fleet and it serves about 100 destinations.

easyJet Flight

The UK's easyJet, which entered the airspace in 1995, has not been subjected to any accidents, and in fact its history is so free of accidents that it is difficult to find any serious case on its flights.

During its 33 years of operation, which began in 1985, Ryan Airlines was not involved in a fatal accident; the only case in which it came close to a dangerous accident was in 2008, when a plane was forced to land in Rome after being attacked by many birds' strikes to the nose, wings and engines.
