They're all very safe these days, but if it makes you feel any better the 717 has never had a fatal accident, the 757 has had a few and the 737 has had quite a few, but is also the most widely used plane in airline history, you can see for yourself on this website:

All three aircraft have excellent safety records. Nothing to worry about with any of them.

The 717 does have a 100% "fresh air" cabin, instead of recirculated air. If you have any breathing issues, such as athsma, go with the 717.

They are all really safe to fly in. The safety of an aircraft depends on how well the aircraft is maintained and whether or not the people flying the airplane are qualified. Weather also plays a role. If you are flying a U.S. carrier, there are certifications that the airline must meet so you should not have to worry about what type of aircraft is the safest.

They're both great, But I'd go with the 717 because they are, for the most part, newer then the 757 and 737-400.

They all are safe.

If you want some changes and get your statistic half, then

choose Boeing 757 + Boeing 737-400

Have fun....

Just fly do not worry. Sky is much safer then land and Ocean.

doesn't really matter which one over the other if one flight is non stop I'd go with that one because the trip time will be usually less however if the flight with the stop over is CHEAPER I'd go with that one if I was spending my money, the company's money I'd go with the one that will give me the most amount of overtime and convenient times

they both are safe because boeing is one of the most relliable and also the most popular airplane producer, the boeing 737 is one of the most popular plane chosen by airlines around the world so it doesn't really matter.

What you should look out for are airliners that fly old russian planes like Illuysion or Antonov, these planes are usually used by North West Airlines and i suggest you avoind them!
So if you really want to feel safe stick with the airline that uses boeing's or airbus because they are extreemley relliable and also check the airline reports i suggest the skytrax website
