Air France has a lot of services. They are not all flights.
To avoid any misunderstanding, it is better to use the word flights.

Passengers to Paris traveling by Air France
No it is not "Air France Paris Services", it's the number of passengers transported to Paris.
Is it about Air service or the bus service from downtown to airport?

: Air France Paris service. That's all it says. It says nothing about whether it's flights, buses or bicycles-made-for-two. That is a question of the wider context, which we don't have.
