So I believe there is some room for expansion, without adding too many planes...
According to this article:

He mentions NE to FL during a 12 month period, and HI and AK during peak summer. Did you hear anything more specific, the article I posted earlier he seemed to be a lot more adventurous in terms of growth outside of MSP.
Yes, the growth will primarily come outside of MSP, the Transavia deal is great for winter flying but those planes have to go back to Amsterdam for their busy summer season.
He has talked about adding flights to cities in the Northeast and potentially Canada. Cleveland, Pittsburgh etc..
