In 2018, Singapore Airlines launched the world's longest non-stop flight from Singapore to New York, further cementing its position as an innovative airline.

The airline's success is also attributed to its strategic partnerships with other airlines and aviation-related companies. For instance, it is a founding member of the Star Alliance, which is a global airline network that provides seamless travel experiences to passengers. Additionally, it has formed partnerships with other airlines, such as Virgin Australia, to expand its reach in different regions.

The perception of Singapore Airlines as a premium airline has also contributed to its success. The airline has consistently portrayed an image of luxury, sophistication, and reliability through its branding efforts. Its signature Singapore Girl has become an iconic figure in the aviation industry, representing the airline's commitment to excellent service and hospitality.

In conclusion, Singapore Airlines has been named the best airline in the world multiple times due to a combination of factors. Its commitment to excellent customer service, investment in advanced technology, innovation, strategic partnerships, and perception as a premium airline has contributed to its consistent success. As the aviation industry continues to evolve, Singapore Airlines' ability to adapt to change and remain at the forefront of innovation and service will continue to drive its success.
