Skytrax World's Cleanest Airlines 2025: Nine out of the top 10 are from Asia

Whether you're stuck on a speedy two-hour flight or a long-haul journey across the world, the last thing you want is a grimy seat, litter in the pockets, and washrooms that smell less than petal-fresh. It's not a simple matter of comfort, we'd argue – hygiene counts for much more in a post-pandemic world. If you'd like a level of guarantee when it comes to aircraft cleanliness, you can turn to the authorities over at Skytrax. The airline and airport review website recently announced its ranking of the World's Best Airlines for 2025 – and winners in a host of other categories, including cleanliness. For its World's Cleanest Airlines 2025 ranking, it rated the cleanliness and presentation of seat areas, tables, carpets, cabin panels, washrooms, and more to determine the final results. Topping this squeaky clean list is Taiwanese airline EVA Air. This is the first time that the airline has received this honour from Skytrax, having moved up from the No. 3 position last year. It's an all-round good airline though, having maintained its 5-star rating from Skytrax for 10 years now. We're proud to say that the World's Cleanest Airlines list is dominated by Asian airlines. A full 13 Asian carriers are on the list, with nine filling out the top 10 ranks. After EVA Air is Japanese airline ANA All Nippon Airways at No. 2 and Hong Kong carrier Cathay Pacific Airways at No. 3. Qatar Airways just edges out Singapore Airlines – awarded the best airline in Asia for 2025 by Skytrax – which sits comfortably at No.5. Ranks six through 14 are filled by Asian airlines from China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and South Korea. Check out the full list below.
