2. Nepal Airlines
Nepal Airlines, formally known as Royal Nepal Airlines, was awarded one-star in the safety report byAirlineRatings, which means there’s nothing royal about it. While Nepal’s rugged Himalayas will test the skills of any top gun, the airline has an atrocious track record. There have been over a dozen fatal crashes and accidents since the 1960s. The most recent crash occurred in 2014. Eighteen people died when a plane crashed into the side of a hill. Inexperienced pilots, poor management, and inadequate maintenance have all been blamed for Nepal Airlines woes. The airline has come under increased fire from international authorities for failing to participate in any internationally recognized safety audits. Perhaps the motto of the flag carrier airline of Nepal should be Fly at Your Own Risk or The Rogue Ride.
