For many people, air travel is an anxiety-inducing activity, despite being established as the safest mode of transportation.
Despite low accident rates, high safety standards, and the complex technology behind airplanes, many people are still hesitant to strap in and take to the skies.
Airlines are highly regulated and most have no choice but to follow strict rules.
However, a surprising number of airlines fail this grade and are banned from the UK as a result.
Express.co.uk brings you the world's most dangerous airlines.
“The reality is that there is no chance at all of the majority of these airlines flying into the European Union or the UK,” travel expert Simon Calder told The Independent.
“However, this list provides a handy guide to the airlines to look out for when traveling to other parts of the world,” he added.
138 airlines have been banned from operating commercial flights in British airspace due to inadequate safety standards, according to recommendations from the Civil Aviation Authority and the British Aviation Safety Board.
