LIFT Airline has walked away with their first-ever Skytrax award, winning ‘Best Low-Cost Airline in Africa’ for 2024 at the Skytrax World Airline Awards on 24 June.

Jonathan Ayache, LIFT CEO said that they were thrilled to receive their first-ever Skytrax Award.
“Winning the Best Low Cost Airline in Africa is a huge feat for our domestic airline that has been around for just shy of four years. This is a testament to the amazing service our team provides, but also serves as recognition of the broader business model. We are clearly making a mark by providing travellers with our elevated experience and industry leading flexibility. Thank you to our amazing travellers for this vote of confidence” Ayache said.
