I use the partial metering function (Canon 5D Mk IV). In about 90 % there is a good result. Of course You have still to optimize Your pictures later by the histogram. I do this with GIMP.
For finding out the best measurement method for the different situations (bigger bright parts / dark parts / much sky ,,,) in your motif just try the different methods and find out the best for you to operate with. The better you know about how the different programs are working, the more you will find the best one for each situation and the better your results will be. A 100 % solution for all situations does not exist.

I don't think, that's a problem of Canon.
In the second picture of the Vueling, there is a dark wood a big part of the motif. So the exposure program of the camera tries to find a good exposure not only for the plane, but also for the dark wood. The same with the first brussels, there is also a dark background.
You should choose a program of your camera, that only uses a smaller part of the motif for the exposure.
