So how do you qualify Monarch, Air Transat, Tower Air, Martinair, etc to name a few...
errrrr... charter?
AF killed off Air Inter (no loss there!), Air Littoral, UTA, Air Minerve, and no doubt others I can't think of right now.
AF bought AirInter UTA and Minerve (I think). Air Littoral was killed by poor management - AF had nothing to do with its demise.
However Airlib is a different story...
