It won’t surprise you to find out that Air France started life in France. In fact, the business is effectively the oldest air transport company in France. Its story began in 1909 the Company Générale Transaérienne flew items and people around France using airships and seaplanes. After the war, in 1919, the company started carrying mail around France and the small aviation companies started to merge together during the 1920s, which was when French civil aviation started to become more organized. Unfortunately, the financial crisis of the 1930s took its toll, and several airlines folded while Air France was formed from the CGT. Since then the company has grown steadily, fighting off a variety of competitors to become the dominant aviation business in the country. Of course, it had to fight to get there as the French government opened up the competitiveness of the air and reduced Air France's monopoly.
Today Air France planes are as distinctive as those offered by BA. Of course, today they are focused predominantly on the lucrative and busy passenger market. Air France has 214 planes in a variety of sizes to cover short and long haul trips. They currently fly to destinations across the globe, including the rest of Europe, Caribbean, the USA, Asia, and the Middle East. In short, if you want to get anywhere you can use Air France to take you. It should be noted that Air France offers flights only, they are not dabbling in the accommodation market or package holidays.
