I fail to make the connection between:
"They are a safe airline and operate some of the newest aircraft in the sky,"
My understanding is that the safest way to fly is on an aicraft that was built 1 to 5 years ago, but where the design is much older - 20 years or so.

That way any design flaws have been eradicated, but failures due to repeated stress etc are minimised
