Doesn't look like it. The airport has a small number of slots per half year (the winter '09-10 was 175) which can be used for flights. Based on the current pattern, a number of charter airlines from Mexico or the Caribbean seem to use the wee hours to fly in. So if these charters switch to a different flying pattern for European trips, then other flights can fill in the gaps.
