Due to deregulation and dynamic development of the air transport in the recent decades, the concept of performance evaluation and efficiency measurement has been given an increasing attention. The main goal of this paper is to use Data Envelopment Analysis to compare the efficiency of nine airlines using multiple inputs and outputs. The results of the analysis showed that Croatian Airlines, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines and Emirates Airlines have the best ratio of the selected inputs and outputs and thus they are achieving maximum efficiency compared to the other airlines included in the analysis.
