Further to the decisions of the Belgian National Security Council of 27 March 2020
extending the confinement measures in Belgium until 19 April, but possibly until 3 May 2020,

and to the announcement earlier this week by London City Airport
that the airport expects to remain closed until the end of April,

Air Antwerp announced its intent to resume operations on its sole route on Monday 4 May 2020.

Air Antwerp prolongs suspension of flights until 31 May 2020
...and also:
Our regular readers know
that Air Antwerp has two shareholders:
CityJet owns 75% of the shares and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines the remaining 25%.

Since CityJet filed for bankruptcy protection on Friday, 17 April 2020,
the future of Air Antwerp is not yet secure,
but there is no hint yet at what will happen if CityJet disappears. :|

Air Antwerp keeps its aircraft grounded until 13 September
26 August 2020

On its website,
Air Antwerp announces that all scheduled flights on the route Antwerp Airport-London City Airport
are cancelled up to and including 13 September 2020 at this time.

In addition, all mid-day flights WP120 and WP121 are cancelled until further notice.

The first flights to operate after this close-out period
will be WP100-101 on Monday 14 September 2020.

Indeed, at the time of writing,
the UK still imposes a 14-day quarantine for all travellers coming from Belgium,
which seriously impacts bookings.
