Garuda Indonesia has been given one of the highest awards an airline can receive.

On Tuesday January 27 2015, Skytrax CEO Edward Plaisted presented Garuda Indonesia with the “5-star Airline” award, recognising the many improvements carried out by the company over the years, eventually leading to its transformation from a little known entity into one of the best airlines worldwide.

 Garuda Indonesia President & CEO, M. Arif Wibowo accepted the award, with the Minister of Communication of the Republic of Indonesia, Ignasius Jonan, also in attendance.

“We place a lot of importance on the fact that the majority of customers travel in Economy Class. It is the quality and consistency of those standards that contribute greatly to Garuda becoming a 5-star airline,” CEO Skytrax Edward Plaisted said.
