So, there I was, stuck in the airport, waiting for my flight. I'd been traveling for what felt like an eternity, and all I wanted was to get home. I looked up at the departures board, and there it was - my flight, delayed yet again. I sighed, pulled out my phone, and started scrolling through social media. That's when I saw it - a post about the world's worst airline. I chuckled, thinking, "Well, at least I'm not flying with them." But then I thought, "Who are they? And why are they the worst?"
Enter: Air Koryo
Alright, let's talk about Air Koryo, the airline that's been crowned the world's worst by many. Now, I'm not one to judge without giving a fair shot, but after hearing some stories, I'm starting to understand why they've got that title.
Let's talk about the planes
First off, Air Koryo's fleet is... well, it's old. I mean, really old. We're talking about planes that were built when my parents were still in diapers. Now, I'm not saying old planes are automatically bad, but when they're as old as these, you start to wonder about safety standards and maintenance. I mean, I've seen cars older than these planes, and even they have airbags!
Must Read
And get this, folks, Air Koryo doesn't have a single modern plane in its fleet. None. Zip. Zilch. It's like flying in a time machine, but instead of going back to the '50s, you're stuck in the '70s. I don't know about you, but I like my planes to have a few more comforts than a seatbelt and a prayer.
Service with a smile (not really)
Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, the planes are old, but maybe the service makes up for it." Well, my friend, let me tell you, the service is about as warm as a North Korean winter. I've heard stories of flight attendants who seem to have been trained by the Grinch himself. No smiles, no chit-chat, just the bare minimum to keep you alive until you land.
And don't even get me started on the food. I've had prison food that tasted better than what they serve on Air Koryo. I mean, I'm all for trying new things, but when your in-flight meal is a mystery meat sandwich, you start to wonder if they're trying to poison you.

Safety first? Not so much
Now, I'm not one to scare easily, but some of the stories I've heard about Air Koryo's safety record have given me nightmares. I'm talking about planes that have landed with their wheels up, engines that have fallen off mid-flight, and pilots who seem to have been trained by a video game.
I mean, I like a good adrenaline rush as much as the next guy, but when I'm on a plane, I want to feel safe, not like I'm in a real-life game of "Final Destination." I've heard stories of planes that have been held together with duct tape and prayers, and that's just not my idea of a good time.
But why is it still flying?
You might be wondering why, with all these issues, Air Koryo is still flying. Well, my friend, that's a question for the ages. Some say it's because of government subsidies, others say it's because there's just no other option for flying in and out of North Korea. Whatever the reason, it's still flying, and people are still flying on it.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm all for giving things a chance, but after hearing all these stories, I think I'll stick to airlines that have planes that were built this century. I mean, I like a good adventure as much as the next person, but I also like having all my limbs when I land.
So, is Air Koryo really the worst?
Well, that's a matter of opinion, isn't it? Some people might say that the worst airline is the one that loses your luggage, or the one that overbooks and bumps you from your flight. But for me, the worst airline is the one that makes me feel like I'm gambling with my life every time I step on board.
So, next time you're at the airport, looking up at that departures board, and you see a flight with Air Koryo, just remember the old saying, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." And then, do yourself a favor and book a flight with someone else.
