I expect both REU and GRO to go seasonal bases with a massive expansion at BCN if all works out....with up to 20 A/C based there and the biggest FR base after STN. FR will test the waters this winter with 5. As the company is now maturing and rapid growth slows, subsidies on routes will come to an end and we will see FR move to higher yielding routes which will deliver long term profitability and load factors.

Its a shame for GRO more than REU, who have become a major FR base. This cannot be sustained with the expansion of BCN and I expect GRO in the winter will suffer hard.
