British Airways Vs. Air France: Who Operated More Concorde Aircraft?

Both British Airways and Air France operated seven Concordes, one more than each of them had actually ordered, and one fewer than what was theoretically available. It has now been 50 years since Concorde entered service, and while its core route was Paris/London to New York, that wasn’t the case on its inaugural revenue-generating flights. The first British flight flew to Bahrain, while the French flight flew to Rio de Janeiro via Senegal.
