I wouldn't call it expantion,they have axed one route to introduce another route that is already served from Bfs.

[GAZMO]

So what other routes will the 8th aircraft be doing?......Domestic?

[allnamestaken1]

More or less yes and bucket and spade flights.

Budapest 2 X weekly (both operated by Ryanair Sun)
Palma 2 X weekly
Cardiff 2 X weekly

With 64 weekly return flights plus 4 operated by non based aircraft are two based aircraft enough?

[BFS BHD]

Yes two based aircraft seem to fit the current timetable.

Also looks like Budapest will operate in the winter (2023/24) too.
Appears to be half loaded into the system.
Outbound flights from BFS on a Monday are showing but inbound flights aren't loaded.
No Thursday loaded.
