VG Airlines ambitious growth plans


Year2002:

Just three months after launch, Belgian long-haul carrier VG Airlines is preparing to almost double its network and fleet size.
Passenger numbers are already "healthy and increasing", with load factors averaging around 50% and peaking at 75-80%. VG says it may soon add "two or three" destinations and acquire up to three more aircraft.
The airline declines to specify where it is looking to expand as a variety of options are being examined, but says that it might not be limited to the USA.


Year2002:

The name VG Airlines was changed to Delsey Airlines, in hopes to turn things around.
But Delsey Airlines ceased operations on November 05th, 2002 as efforts to improve matters did not succeed in time.
The carrier operated 3 Airbus A330-200.
