I highly doubt it!! If they ever consider having another hub at GDL they should open it NOW!!!
Alma having its hub there will expand very quickly as well as Mexicana, AeroMexico, Aviacsa, AeroCalifornia and new AVolar won't do the things so easy at GDL!!! Add to that what Volaris and Interjet will try to do... wishful thinking... they should only focus to do everything they want from MTY.
Very interesting airports!! FINALLY CVJ is getting more traffic as what it used to be with AerolĂneas Internacionales and FINALLY TOO, the VERY UNDERSERVED NEW QET AIRPORT will get more traffic.

Some MAJOR differences: FR's brand is extremely well-known throughout Europe; FR is able to offer such fares because it places an ever-increasing emphasis on ancillary revenue rather than fares, thereby offsetting the fares; FR has a huge cash reserve; FR is very profitable; FR has one of the lowest cost bases in aviation; and FR is on course to become one of Europe's biggest consumer growth firms because it is very well-executing its businessplan. Its very cheap fares are increasingly becoming more than simply lead-in fares; indeed, it wishes, one day, to have 50% of its fares for free. The key difference is that it can sustainably and profitably do this: it continually reduces its costs (achievable through economies of scale due to its huge size, although there will come a time when it can't reduce them anymore); its ever-increasing customer numbers - presently about 39m, increasing to 84-100m by 2014 - and so huge volumes; and, again, it generates considerable profit and has huge cash reserves. For new, small carriers, offering such fares, while attractive, has a big downside: they cannot be neither sustainable nor profitable.
Incidentally, my girlfriend used to live in Moreilla.
