CityJet appoints new CEO

CityJet appointed Christine Ourmieres as its CEO, effective Oct. 1. She replaces Geoffrey O'Byrne-White, who stepped down at the end of August.

Ourmieres began her career at Air France in 1988 and most recently was the US GM and VP for AF KLM. CityJet, a fully owned subsidiary of the Air France KLM Group, employs more than 1,100 people and operates a fleet of more than 40 aircraft on flights from Paris Charles de Gaulle to various European cities. It also operates a route network in and out of London City, where it is the largest operator following the acquisition of VLM Airlines in 2008. VLM now flies under the CityJet brand.
