It's airline money and thus passengers' money. I'm perfectly happy to accept a higher risk if I can save a few bucks. It's like buying a used car.

- munk-a 8y agoThat only holds if accepting the higher risk actually comes with the savings and if you are aware of the higher risk you're accepting. Mostly people don't do safety comparisons of different planes when booking trips overseas and, TBH, pushing that sort of investigation off on consumers creates huge inefficiencies in our economy. It's simply better for the government to hold all options to a certain safety level then try and rely on market forces to balance it out.
