I have some opinions on the worst airlines in the world, but I wanted to see what others thought. Here are the top 10 worst airlines in the world based on the number of results in Google for the airline name + “worst airline.”
1. Alitalia – with 12,000 results
2. Spirit Airlines – with 10,400 results
3. Continental – with 7,180 results
4. Southwest – with 5,780 results
5. Delta – with 5,670 results
6. Northwest – with 4,510 results
7. American Airlines – with 4,350 results
8. Korean Air – with 4,180 results
9. British Airways – with 4,020 results
10. Ryanair – with 3,930 results
Personally, I find this list a bit surprising. Based on my experiences, American Airlines and Aer Lingus would have been all over this list. And British Airways would not have been on it at all. I was also surprised that easyjet did not make the top 10 and that Ryanair was not higher up.
Curious as to how other airlines fared? Check back for a follow-up post on the other airlines I checked out.

Continental airlines look after the Americans, everyone else comes second.
