VLM Airlines trustees signed an agreement in principle for the acquisition of the airline by SHS Antwerp Aviation (Netherlands). VLM plans to resume operations with six Fokker 50s once a new AOC is obtained (end 2016).

VLM Airlines filed for bankruptcy back in June, but it looks like they will resume operations very soon. Read this topic with more clarification.

Employees are very active on social media, today VLM raised the “hats or no hats for cabin crew” – question on Facebook. In the past weeks VLM posted the following messages on Facebook, clearly stating their intentions: re-building the network, flying 6 Fokkker 50 end 2016, hiring pilots (Fokker, Airbus A320 and Airbus A330) for (long-haul ?) operations in 2017/2018.

 

We are very busy building the new network for VLM. Which routes would you like to see served ?

The offices of VLM are once again full of people working on a new future of aviation in Belgium and beyond.

 

VLM is all about connecting people, companies, cities, regions and countries around the world in a client centric and efficient way. We hope to give more information about our new flights and destinations soon!
