Antwerpen International Airport

Antwerpen International Airport (Deurne) is located 2 km from the City of Antwerp, Belgium.
It has a maintenance hangar of VLM Airlines.

The regional Airport of Antwerp is the property of the Flemish Region and is managed by the Flemish Ministry of Mobility and Public Works as a “Separate Management Service”. Its organic rules have been laid down by the Flemish Government Decree of 8 June 1994 (Belgian Official Gazette of 20 October 1994).

This form of management allows the Airport to operate autonomously to a certain extent and to conduct a commercial policy, and at the same provides the Airport with the opportunity to benefit from the integration into the Flemish authorities. Apart from its own aeronautical and non-aeronautical revenues, Antwerp Airport also receives an operating allocation and an investment allocation from the Flemish Region.

In 2005 it served as many as about 105,937 passengers (only counted: Scheduled Flights, Business Flights and Charter Flights).

In 2006, the airport served 147,849 passengers. Due to its short runway length (under 1500 meters), it is not possible to operate larger aircraft at the airport.

Because this limits the growth of the airport and also due to stronger runway regulations, an extension of the runway towards Borsbeek is planned.
