About CityJet

Since its formation in 1993, CityJet has built a reputation for operational excellence, safety and reliable regional aviation services.

We started out providing a direct link to the new London City Airport 30 years ago and have evolved into a pan-European operator delivering capacity to customer airlines across Europe.

Since 2018, we have operated exclusively as an ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) provider.

Our business model is straightforward. We provide the aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance, while our customer airlines determines where and when the aircraft operates, manages ticket sales and is responsible for operating costs such as fuel and airport charges. This allows our customers to respond flexibly to changing market demand while maintaining their own brand and passenger experience.

Today, all our flights are operated on behalf of Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) under a long-term wet lease agreement.

We operate a fleet of CRJ900 aircraft, each configured with 88 or 90 seats. Our operations are centred in Copenhagen and Stockholm supporting SAS's regional network. 320 employees are based in Copenhagen alone, across both flying and ground roles, making CityJet one of Denmark's significant airline employers.

Our maintenance centre at Hanger 3, Copenhagen Airport provides line maintenance for our fleet, together with crew training and HR services.

Our Operations Control Centre (OCC), Continuing Airworthiness Management Organisation (CAMO) and corporate administration are based at Dublin Airport, while our crew planning centre is located in Luton, England.

Safety is at the heart of everything we do. we are IOSA certified, having successfully completed its latest IATA Operational Safety Audit in June 2025 under the new Risk-Based Approach, with recertification valid until November 2027. The airline also holds UK Civil Aviation Third Operator (TCO) approval.

We continue to invest in our people and operations, regularly recruiting across the business and providing CRJ type-rating opportunities for new flight crew.

Following its membership of the Strategic Alliance of Regional Airlines (SARA) in 2023, we entered a new chapter on 31st October 2025 under new ownership of CItyJet Holding ApS, reinforcing its commitment to operational excellence, long-term stability and sustainable growth.
