Sure, but you may want to try to have an influence on the way you die.
I found some airline rating: (There was a plane that CA lost, I didn't know. It was in April 2002 in South Korea when the pilot chose a too difficult landing approach not allowed in the stormy weather.)
Number of lost planes in the last 20 years/persons killed
Air China: 1/129
China Airlines: 8/764
There are only 5 major Airlines rated worse than China Airlines: Air India, Egypt Air, CSA Czech Airlines, TAM Linhas Aereas, Turkish Airlines.
