The parent company of Air France is AirFrance-KLM which is a publicly traded company. France and the Netherlands are the largest shareholders and hold about 14 and 12 % of the stock each. So it is probably not correct to identify Air France as a company owned by the French State.
As a publicly traded company they are to some extent required to choose employment options that are financially beneficial, I would guess that's happening here.

Being Air France staff based in Dublin wouldn’t let you fill many hours if you could only work on journey between Ireland and france. There’s probably some union rules restricting them from working exclusively outside of the country they’re based.
