Belgium-based ASL Private Jet Services and its Dutch sister company JetNetherlands will&nbsp;add&nbsp;four aircraft to their combined&nbsp;fleet in the coming months. This furthers the group’s fast growth track, which also saw it recently expand&nbsp;third-party ground-handling services. All four aircraft will be managed and operated on behalf of their respective owners and will also be&nbsp;offered for charter.

 


The four new additions consist of&nbsp;three Cessna Citations and a Hawker 4000, which will be based in Antwerp, Belgium and will be operated shortly. A nine-seat Citation X, the second of the type to join the ASL-JetNetherlands fleet, will also be based in Belgium, at the regional airport of Kortrijk-Wevelgem. Meanwhile, a Citation XLS+ and CitationJet&nbsp;will be based at Rotterdam-The Hague Airport in The Netherlands and&nbsp;available for charter within the next month or so.

 


The Hawker 4000, Citation XLS+, and CitationJet&nbsp;will be registered on ASL’s Belgian air operator certificate (AOC) while the Citation X will join JetNetherlands’ AOC.

 


ASL-JetNetherlands was founded in 1997 by Philippe Bodson and operates more than 30 aircraft from Amsterdam-Schiphol, Antwerp, Brussels-Zaventem, Brussels-Charleroi, Eindhoven, Groningen, Maastricht, Kortrijk-Wevelgem, and Rotterdam Airports.
