December 24, 2007 was indeed a hectic day for the tourism industry. MaxJet announced their Chapter 11 Banruptcy, then Travelscope Holiday Limited's services were cancelled, and I just read that VLM Airlines was sold to the air france-KLM group.
The news of the sale was announced on Christmas Eve in Antwerp, Belgium where the seat of Panta Holdings, owner of VLM Airlines is.
"VLM Airlines is one of Europe's leading regional carriers catering principally for business travellers. The company operates a fleet of 18 Fokker 50 and one BAE 146. London City Airport is the hub for the majority of its flights and therefore VLM Airlines will actively cooperate with the regional carrier CityJet, a 100% subsidiary of Air France, which is already operating out of London City Airport."
Details of the sale were not disclosed.

Really cheap flights on regional carriers keeps the cost down as the big guys have to compete.
Hawaii for a while had a small cheap airline called Mahalo for a couple of years you could afford to travel inter island.
Air Asia and Jet Star are doing the same thing for Asia now for Thailand Malaysia Singapore to China and the Philippines.
China has 7 small airlines that keeps the flights cheap there and Vietnam also has a cheap carrier that I can't remember off hand.
thanks for the good info!
