Safe to fly on 787?

As a rule I avoid the 787, due to all the rumors of production flaws and poor quality control. Unfortunately, I have to fly from Mexico City to Tokyo, then Tokyo to Bangkok next week on 787s with ANA. I booked before perusing old threads here, and I was shocked to learn about structural concerns that have emerged over the last two years.

I'm tempted to spend an extra few thousand dollars to fly with KLM instead (cancellation fees + fare differences) , but financially that's a hard pill to swallow.

What's the consensus? Are the concerns about the 787 overblown, or should I avoid it at all cost?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
