Note: Your list appears to be a specific dataset rather than a universally standardized industry ranking. In particular, the “Flights/day” numbers can vary substantially depending on whether the source counts scheduled sectors, individual operating airlines, seasonal schedules, or group/subsidiary operations. So I have preserved your numbers rather than presenting them as independently verified current figures.

If your goal is an airline encyclopedia, I can also turn all 100 into a much richer format with Country, IATA code, ICAO code, callsign, headquarters, founded, fleet size, aircraft types, hubs, alliance, destinations, annual passengers, CEO, parent company, and a detailed 100–150 word profile for every airline.
