Part of Ryanair's route announcement yesterday was that the announcement of a new hub was imminent. But they declined to elaborate on it's location
I suggest ALLmCC you ask MOL.
As to pax figures ...let me type s..l....o....w...l.....y BFS is streets ahead as I pointed out to you in NUMEROUS earlier threads(how's the runway resurface answer coming? no conferring...)
As to your "fireworks" I am of the opinion that with VERY few exceptions EZY and RYR go head to head..perhaps you could include those instances in your answer.
