Best product each one flies
Scored on what can be verified. Service, food and ground recovery are absent deliberately: they need someone in the seat, and they live in the reviews rather than here.
One caveat on the Value line, stated rather than buried: Value is computed from business fares, and a carrier with too few of them does not get a Value score at all. Where you see a dash, we have fewer than three priced business routes for that airline and did not want to invent a figure from one or two — so its product score is the mean of three dimensions rather than four, and it is not directly comparable to a score built on hundreds of fares. The airlines with the most fares behind them are named on the business-class ranking, and where each of these two sits among every carrier we price, on seat and on fare, is on The Best Airlines to Fly to Europe.

One thing separates them: seat
Seat: Edelweiss Air
5/10 on the A330-200 against 8/10 on the A350-900.
Level on IFE and lounge & bags and value
As almost every pair is. Of the 31 business cabins we have verified, 28 score 8 on screens and power and 29 score 10 on lounge and bags — because those two dimensions describe what a business fare includes rather than which airline sold it to you. Lounge access, two checked bags and a carry-on are close to the definition of the cabin.
The one genuine differentiator on screens is free wifi, and only Delta and JetBlue offer it. Seat and Value are where carriers separate, which is why they lead this page.

Air Serbia: Thompson Vantage in a staggered 1-2-2 / 1-2-1 pattern. 19 of the 21 seats reach an aisle directly; the field means every seat, so it is recorded as false.
Edelweiss Air: Sogerma Solstys in an alternating 1-2-1 / 2-2-1 stagger. Recorded as no direct aisle access because the field means every seat.
