Indeed. It would not have been difficult to take over and adapt the VLM site. Just contact the curator.

Well, in my opinion they had enough time to prepare the website, no idea why it is not ready yet.
Andre, why do you want to take over and adopt the website of VLM? The hostage of the website costs peannuts, the only problem for them can be a booking system, but CityJet or KLM coud share their booking system with them, no?

How about Air Antwerp becoming the launch customer for the new Dornier D328Neu, a turboprop with up to 39 seats? The ideal capacity for this Antwerp-based airline!

The limited capacity sounds good enough, as long as operating cost is correspondingly low. Still, the shareholders might well be reluctant to spend lots of money on shiny brand-new planes; at least for a beginning.

What is the seating arrangement? 13 rows of 1+2? I already suggested 1+2, in an ATR42.

It seems difficult to subscribe to the newsletter. After filling all the required boxes, all I get is an endlessly circling aeroplane...

KLM-website seems cheaper indeed, and there there's also an option without checked luggage which is even cheaper...

On topic,..
I heard of rumours thé F50 of Air Antwerp would fly roundflights during thé 'bevrijdingsdagen' op 7-8 september 2019.
Any more info about this ?
The aircraft is going to be indeed at Antwerp during the bevrijdingsdagen on those dates. No idea yet if roundflights have been already confirmed.

Report by local tv ATV (first item in their daily news):

- one passenger expected a KLM aircraft;
- one passenger was an avgeek, flying ATW100 just for fun;
- a local politician from the Greens think that people should take the train, via Brussels Zuid/Midi, to London...
