Why should this airline be added?
This airline was founded in July 2017, lasted 2 years and then merged back into its parent Air France in June 2019. It was designed, according to Air France, to appeal to young people and get them flying with a cool, hip airline that was cheaper for people to fly on but wasn’t low cost, whilst flying to the usual low cost destinations that young people like to fly to. They made it big with a fleet of 17 aircraft, planning to expand it to 28 by 2020 with A350s replacing the 4 A340s. Instead, they realised the market was too dense to suddenly spring into and a very confused idea as to what the airline was supposed to be, resulting in appealing to the wrong crowd and failing to save Air France any money like they planned. It flew to holiday destinations in Europe with its short haul fleet while its A340s visited destinations in the Caribbean, Asia, South Africa and South America.
