History
Antwerp Airport was transferred from Belgian Airports and Airways to the Flemish region. During this time (1989 - 1991), the company was responsible for the management of the airport on behalf of the Flemish government. The numbers of passengers and flight operations have decreased compared with former years. For reasons of environmental protection, and due to competition from other means of transport and airports, less charter aeroplanes now take-off and land here.
