They rank 71st out of 88 for safety. http://www.planecrashinfo.com/rates.htm SQ does not have a great record either.

I should add that I have flown each airline several times and always in Business. Korean does a nice job - not great, but nice. NW is not very good. My last flight had no sake! The FA's complain about how the flight is stocked. Still, I want to be safe.
I was under the impression that Korea Air really turned their safety around for the positive since the late 1990s...I know there were some accidents before that but didnt they do a 180?
