According to Belgium's VRT news, former DAT and VLM CEO Freddy Van Gaever has plans for a new airline, which would operate long-haul services only. He wouldn't compete with DAT+ or Virgin Express, so he won't fly to Africa, Europe or the Eastern USA.
Nothing is final yet, but Van Gaever told VRT that he was leaving for Bordeaux to talk to some owners of Airbus aircraft, including ex-Sabena A330s, and that he was talking to possible investors. The decision on whether to proceed with this project should be made by the end of next week.
