If the flight is operated by a regional carrier or subsidiary, I have the ticketing carrier (ie Air France) in the airline and flight number but put the operating carrier (eg Cityjet or HOP) in the notes.
I guess ultimately it depends on who's in flight magazine is in the seat pocket when I choose which airline to use.
One problem I did have was when I took a BA flight BMA-AAR operated by Sun Air of Scandinavia but this was actually ultimately flown by North Aviation. Difficult to have a hard and fast rule here.
