It was forced to suspend operations after the Armenian civil aviation authority decided not to extend its air operator certificate. Air-Van was also forbidden from landing in Switzerland[2] and Belgium. These bans may have been the cause for Air Van to appear on a proposed Europe-wide blacklist of some airlines.[2]
