You're conflating two issues here. Yes, air travel is safer than any other means of travel. But comparing apples to apples (Boeing vs Airbus), Boeing has twice as many incidents per 100k flights than Airbus. It's not unreasonable to prefer one to the other, however safe they both might be in the grand scheme of things.
