It was also named the best business class airline for 2015 by AirlineRatings.com.
Its quality, cleanliness, and service rank highly, and the airline is often commended for the comfort of its seats and the quality of its in-flight entertainment.
Nowhere is this more apparent than in its first class cabins, which have recently been revamped to feature more luxurious seats and bedding, as well as top-notch amenities.

You can bring a small bag — 15kg — on board.
Watch movies or listen to music through the suite's system with Bose Noise Cancelling headphones, charge your devices with the USB port or connect to the iPhone/iPod connector to choose from your own selection, and recline your seat, adjust the support, or turn lights on and off with an LCD touch screen controller.
There's also a specially-designed first class toilet where you can use your new goodies.
There are also a range of desserts, wines, cheese, teas, and coffees, of course.
You'll get a 500 thread count cotton duvet, pillow, cushion, and mattress.
