They seem to be all major carries for a certain country :/ Would’ve liked to see more “regional” carriers

It’s quite a shame the list didn’t include low cost carriers considering that they effectively manage their fleets with budgets less than the more established carriers.

It hasn’t been operating for a long time though so that’s likely why it isn’t on the list. They probably work it out by the amount of Flight each airline has and the amount of accidents. I don’t know though but I wouldn’t rely on these kinds of lists because it’s not clear how it’s determined

That entire “safest airline” thing is absolute BS.
To start with, How the heck do you measure safety? Very few people die in plane crashes every year and that small unlucky group is normally just 2 or 3 airlines.
Also it is unfair for airlines that have been around for longer.
This makes the public have an impression that some airlines are safer than others, and the truth is that if an airline meets FAA standards then it is as safe as any other.
Flying is THE SAFEST way of transportation IN THE WORLD and IN HISTORY
