AeroLyon

Aerolyon is a former French long haul and charter airline which ceased to exist in 2002.

It flew from various airports in France, including Lyon, Paris, Brest, Nantes and Bordeaux to the Caribbean, West Indies and other overseas French territories.

Aeroplus L'Air, an outfit run by Jean-Marie Gras attempted to create a revival of the airline using a single Airbus A340.

However in December 2002, a court in Lyon decided that a rescue plan was too risky, and rejected the proposal.

[1] The ICAO code of Aerolyon, which was passed to Aeroplus L'Air of AEY is now used by Air Italy.
