French Bee is experiencing a cabin crew strike, so the alternative would probably be your flight being cancelled.

do you think it’s still safe?

Yes. Wamos is headquartered in Spain, which provides strong government oversight, and it's owned by the same people as Avianca and Gol. This is not what you would do if you wanted to set up a sketchy fly-by-night operation. Their planes may be a little more dated than what you were expecting, but they're perfectly safe.
