CAPA Awards for Excellence 2022 | Regional Airline of the Year

Regarded as the pre-eminent awards for strategic excellence in aviation, CAPA's Aviation Awards for Excellence reward airlines and airports that are not only successful but have also provided industry leadership in adjusting to a new environment. At a time of industry upheaval, our winners are adopting strategies that offer new directions for others to take up. The CAPA Awards for Excellence are not driven by customer surveys or sponsorship. They are independently researched by an independent international panel of judges. CAPA's panel of judges review nominations for all categories, but not all categories are awarded each year. Awards are only made if the judges determine there is a suitable winner.

This is awarded to the regional airline that has been the biggest standout strategically, has established itself as a leader and demonstrated innovation in the regional aviation sector. (Note that this award is not limited to operators of regional aircraft; it is intended to recognise smaller airlines – fewer than 10 million annual passengers – that either do not operate any long haul services, or only operate limited long haul services.)
