Don't send big planes to small airports. Other than that, you can't do anything about it, it's part of the game.

there are two kinds of plane crashes:

crashes because of short runway: the newer planes require a long runway, like the one of the city airport (6 tiles). the chance for crashing increases drastically if you try to land them on a small airport (4 tiles) or commuter airport (5 tiles(?)), so avoid those airports

completely random crashes: the chance of these is rather low, but you cannot disable those crashes.

No, it doesn't. The answer by Eddi was the correct answer.
