I have a form of personal risk assessment I apply. It looks at alternatives. For instance, in somewhere like Indonesia, while the safety of air travel may be less than perfect, the alternatives are probably even less safe (with the exception of their few train routes) so I would fly. But, let's face it, getting from the airport into town is going to involve some road travel.

I look at Air France and I see an airline whose safety culture appears (and note I am not being absolute) to have some failings. I would therefore consider alternatives. However if, like driving into town in Indonesia, there isn't a sensible alternative (and that is by no means about price) I would fly Air France.
