Bev Fearis, Travel Mole, 4/10/2007

Services have now begun operating between London City Airport and five European cities under the new brand CityJet for Air France.

The service is aimed at corporate travellers who want to fly into the centre of business cities and operates to Geneva, Madrid, Nice, Zurich and Belfast (in cooperation with Scotairways).

Christine Ourmières, general manager for Air France UK & Ireland, said: "Air France, together with CityJet, have launched this product to meet the growing demands of city to city travel in the business community of London."

CityJet for Air France uses a young fleet of Avro RJ85 aircraft, all equipped with 95 leather seats.

Customers using the CityJet for Air France network will also benefit from AIR FRANCE KLM's frequent flyer programme, Flying Blue.
