I usually choose an airline for safety, value and comfort. It raises the question in my mind if one should also include the political and social values represented by that airline. Should we fly Airlines like Emirates knowing that they are owned by a regime or represent a country that exploits foreign workers and is guilty of above abuses.
I would be interested in your thoughts.
