Air experts named the most unsafe airlines in the world. Among them were carriers from Nepal, Bangladesh and Thailand, according to Buying Business Travel.

Analysts of the specialized website Airlineratings, have rated the safety of 250 airlines worldwide and awarded stars to each of them. The more of them, the safer the carrier. For getting the maximum assessment, companies needed to have a validated IOSA certificate of the International Air Transport Association and permission to fly in European and American airspace, not have incidents with casualties over the past 10 years, not to use aircrafts, constructed before 1990, and comply with all safety requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization.

Eventually, passengers of Nepal Airlines (Nepal), which received only 1 star in the safety rating, should worry most of all for their own lives. By two stars were limited to the success of carriers such as US-Bangla Airlines from Bangladesh, Blue Wing from Suriname and Airlines PNG from Papua New Guinea. All of the enumerated companies "marked" over the past 10 years with air accidents, where, alas, passengers died. Besides, their fleet cannot boast of freshness and novelty. Potentially dangerous were Kam Air (Afghanistan), Iraqi Airways (Iraq), Ariana Afghan Airlines (Afghanistan), and two Thai airlines, Nok Air and AirAsia Thailand.
