  Air France

CityJet BAe 146 EI-DJJ
CityJet BAe 146 EI-DJJ (BAE Systems)
CityJet operates a large fleet of BAe 146s on Air France services, in full Air France colors. Other operators who have flown BAe 146s for Air France include Jersey European/British European/Flybe, Air Jet, Debonair, and Eurowings.

  Air Jet

Air Jet used several BAe 146-200QCs from 1991, on night cargo services (initially for parent Jet Services, later for TNT) and on daytime passenger flights (including, for a time, on behalf of Air France). An ill-fated foray into scheduled services led it into bankruptcy in 2003.

  Axis Airways

Marseilles-based Axis Airways took over the two BAe 146-200QCs formerly operated by Air Jet in May 2003 and operated them until late 2005, when they were sold to TNT Airways.
