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.

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.
Royal Air Maroc: The 787-8 carries an older, denser cabin where window passengers climb past a neighbour. Its seat specification was not established well enough to record, so it is flagged here rather than scored.
