# British Airways Is Britain's Top Brand, According to Superbrands

February 26, 2014

3 Minute Read

By Sarah Burns

## Britain's favourite brand has been revealed by the new 2014 Consumer Superbrands list.

Most notably, perhaps, [Apple](http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/) has dropped out of the top 10 and [Facebook](http://facebook.com) has disappeared from the top 20 altogether!

So the winner is...

[British Airways](http://www.britishairways.com/travel/home/public/en_gb) have taken the top spot, with maybe thanks to it's latest re-branding, 'To Fly, To Serve' campaign.

The highest ranking Business Superbrand title was given to [Visa](http://www.visa.co.uk/).
