Any major airline stands to lose billions of dollars (equipment loss plus lawsuits, fines, and bad publicity) on a fatal crash caused by negligence. Every flight is therefore essentially a multibillion-dollar wager that they'll get you to your destination safely. I'm happy to take those odds. But if you've already made up your mind that it's dangerous, why'd you ask us?
