Airbus vs. Boeing

Um correct me if I am wrong, hasn't Airbus had a lot of problems with their products?

CX had to ground the A330 fleet after they first got them.

An AA A300-600 tail completely snapped off the airplane sending everyone to their deaths.

An AF A330 plunged into the Atlantic killing everyone on board.

The A380 problems have not even been sorted out yet.

They (Airbus) had to give up on the A340-500/600 cause it could never perform. We gave those away.

Oh yeah I almost forgot, WE JUST HAD AN A330 NEARLY CRASH IN HONG KONG!

And CX wants more of these things??? I say go all Boeing. You'll get a good deal from them and it will help training costs immensely. B747-8is, B777-200LRs and 300 ERs and 787-8/9s. I do not even wanna ride on an Airbus!
