Air France is a French airline based at Charles-de-Gaulle and Orly airports. It serves nearly 243 destinations (with the Air France-KLM group), both intercontinental () and domestic. In October 2013, Air France celebrated its 80th anniversary: an Air France A380 was repainted for this occasion.
The Air France company was created for the first time in 1933, formed from the merger of four other companies: Air Orient, Air Union, CIDNA and Farman lines, under the decision of the French Parliament (formerly called SCELA). This year it has 259 planes, and carries nearly 50,000 passengers. The same year of its creation, in October, a ceremony was organized at Le Bourget, with the president of the company, Ernest Roume, former president of the company Air Orient.
Capital Airlines, Inc is an American airline formed in 1948, formerly known as Pennsylvania Central Airlines. Struggling financially, Capital Airlines merged with United Airlines in June 1961.
