The expansion adds one new based aircraft bringing the fleet to three aircraft with an investment of three hundred million US dollars. Over three hundred and eighty weekly flights will operate across thirty two routes including two new destinations to Sofia and Tirana delivering three point three million passengers per annum which represents a twenty one per cent increase on the previous summer.
