BEST US AIRLINES
This summer, the TPG team completed a sizable undertaking, [ranking the 50 busiest airports]( in the United States. [San Diego International Airport (SAN)]( took the top spot â you can see where your own airport landed [right here](.
Now, we've brought our expertise to another major travel segment, analyzing some of the [largest US airlines]( â specifically as they relate to [family travel](. Believe it or not, Southwest didn't come in first place, despite a recent [Hawaii expansion]( and the carrier's tremendously popular [Companion Pass]( perk. You can catch the winner in our latest travel-related roundup, along with TPG's other recent rankings below:
- [The best airlines for families in the US](
- [TPG's 2019 best and worst airlines list](
- [The best and worst airports around the US](
This time around, we factored in everything from [unaccompanied-minor policies]( to [family award pooling]( eventually leading us to a [top US airline pick](.
