I also fly this route several times a year - have one coming up in December (DL) and another one in January (OZ) - and I have no intention of changing airlines. I will just follow my usual routine: pop a pill and go to sleep.
You still don't get it. No piece of hardware, no training, will improve an airline if the fundamental of the "culture" of the airline doesn't change. This was the problem of KE in the 90s when they had a series of fatal accidents that are the faults of pilots character, not hardware malfunction, not lack of training. For awhile KE and other Korean-based airlines decided to go tough and train the pilots correctly by enforcing CMR, but now they seem to revert back to "tradition"
