Leveraging the TripIt mobile app used by millions of air travelers worldwide, Official Airline Ratings? analyzed the return of passengers from 470 airlines worldwide through July 31, 2017. Airline travelers were validated by comparing confirmed itineraries and geographic location on mobile devices.
