Yet, they do use satellite 2, with the international level requiring the transit to gates 20-39. MOL has made clear that he's keen on further expanding FR at STN post-Covid, especially now with the EZY base closure, so I'm wondering if they'd end up having to use satellite 1 (in addition to 2 and 3) further down the line, especially as satellite 3 gets very crowded?
When Ryanair first arrived the 30-34 stands weren't built so they used the 20's.
