An extended RWY 20 is going to increase the backtrack to further reduce the flow rate. If other LCCs are as vociferous as Ryanair when it comes to turnaround times, the current log jams at Hold B1 are going to cause considerable aggravation for the airport operator.
Maybe they will lay down a little bit of extra tarmac at night when no one is looking!
