New route for VLM Airlines: Amsterdam - London City
Antwerp, 17 February 2005 - VLM Airlines is extremely proud to introduce the latest addition to its network: the new Amsterdam - London City service. As from Monday 4th April 2005, VLM Airlines will start operating 3 daily flights between Amsterdam and London City.
For the past 10 years, VLM Airlines has built a strong reputation on the Dutch market with its Rotterdam to London City service, a route that now offers 10 daily flights between these two cities.
The decision to start with/launch the Amsterdam - London City route is a well determined choice, and one that fits in perfectly with the strategy and vision of the airline: offering a time efficient and qualitative product to the business passengers. This new route also further strengthens the position of VLM Airlines as the leading carrier at London City Airport, operating 82 flights per weekday.
"We have a strong reputation within the business communities in the various countries we operate", comments Johan Vanneste, Managing Director of VLM Airlines. "Especially within The Netherlands, we have obtained a reputation of being an extremely punctual and highly reliable airline that flies demanding business people to the heart of London".
For business passengers flying from Amsterdam to London, London City Airport offers short check-in times (20 minutes prior to departure) and swift boarding and disembarkation procedures, making the travel experience a fast and efficient one. The airport is also a perfect alternative to the big congested airports such as Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted.
Furthermore, VLM Airlines has an excellent punctuality track record. Last year 92% of all flights on the network departed on time, and even more arrived on time, bringing the airline to the top on punctuality within Europe. "This is of course highly appreciated by our business passengers, who rely on us to get them to their destination on time" ads Johan Vanneste.
VLM Airlines offers full onboard service and is well known for its courteous, professional and friendly crew. The catering on board is free of charge and of a high quality, offering fresh sandwiches to all passengers. Tea and coffee are served in china cups and for those passengers who want to relax after a hard day's work, a beer or a glass of wine are all part of the service.
