These are the top-rated airlines for customer satisfaction
J.D. Power released its 2024 North America Airline Satisfaction Study, which highlighted the airlines whose investments in staff training and overall travel experience paid off.
Delta Air Lines and Southwest Airlines notched highly coveted spots on J.D. Power's 2024 North America Airline Satisfaction Study.
J.D. Power reported Wednesday that domestic air passenger volume is up 9.4% year over year. The survey underscored how carriers that made big investments in staff training and efforts to improve the overall flight experience have reaped the benefits even with the influx of people and uptick in ticket costs.
"Airlines that are investing in staff training and recruitment are finding ways to overcome the negative effects of crowded gates and planes simply by being nice to their customers," Michael Taylor, J.D. Power senior managing director of travel, hospitality, retail and customer service, said.
