Star Alliance has been named the World's Leading Airline Alliance at the World Travel Awards 2024. Earlier this year, in July, the alliance's Los Angeles Airport Lounge was recognized as North America's Leading Airport Lounge for the fifth consecutive year.

Star Alliance CEO Theo Panagiotoulias expressed gratitude for the recognition: "We are incredibly honoured to receive the title of the World's Leading Airline Alliance yet again. This enduring achievement reflects the collective dedication of Star Alliance and member airline employees and their commitment to deliver seamless travel experiences. We also extend our deepest thanks to our valued customers for their continued trust and support."
