I'd rather travel on an airline that recruits its pilots on the basis of their ability to fly, not their ability to pay.

I'd rather be flown by pilots who choose to stay in their job because they're paid a decent living wage, than by pilots who have to stay in their job because they're shackled by an ongoing bond.

And I'd rather fly with an airline that penalises crew who bust minimums, rather than with an airline that penalises crew who make costly diversions.

Sadly I suspect that most SLF's would rather travel with the airline that sells the cheapest tickets
