Israel’s El Al rated Heathrow’s dirtiest, noisiest airline

A new list published by London’s Heathrow Airport rates Israel’s national carrier as the dirtiest and noisiest of all the carriers servicing the the world’s third-largest airport.

According to the results, El Al comes in last out of 50 airlines after failing to receive satisfactory scores in five out of the seven categories, including noise pollution, nitrogen oxide emissions, efficient landing approaches and arrival times.

The Fly Quiet and Clean League ratings is an initiative launched in an effort to shame airlines into adopting cleaner, more efficient practices.

Rounding out the bottom 5 after El Al is Kuwait Airways, Middle East Airlines, Pakistan International Airlines, Omar Air and Jet Airways.
