How about disabling notifications or even uninstalling apps that you feel abuse their notification powers?

An airline do that kind of crap, let them know and book another airline next time.

They all do the same kind of crap? Well, the apps are not required to ever fly, at least not yet.

I’m not sure why this has to be a govern me harder kind of thing…

Well, I can’t. The “free” market does not have that flexibility and for minor airports i have to fly to to visit my family there is only one airline I can book. That said, ALL airlines do that because they can’t avoid leveling up with their competitors marketing so the choice you mention doesn’t actually exist. Considering that our consumer behavior can actually steer decisions in a corporation is a rather naïve take on the problem…
