CityJet is an Irish regional airline headquartered in Swords, County Dublin. Founded in 1994, the carrier has built a reputation as a specialist operator of regional jet services, primarily operating wet-lease and ACMI contracts for major European airlines rather than selling seats directly to the public under its own brand.
The airline has historically served routes from London City Airport and has operated on behalf of carriers including Air France, Brussels Airlines, and Scandinavian Airlines (SAS). CityJet is notable for being one of the few operators of the Bombardier CRJ900 and Sukhoi Superjet 100 in Europe, though its fleet composition has evolved over time.
CityJet has undergone several ownership changes over its history, including a period under Air France ownership before returning to private Irish ownership. The airline continues to focus on wet-lease operations, making it a significant behind-the-scenes player in European regional aviation.
