Aalborg was added in NW21, but doesn't seem to have lasted beyond that one season.
If you had asked me 5 years ago if I would imagine Ryanair offering 45 destinations from Arlanda I don't think I would have believed you.
IIRC Arlanda is a 4 a/c base for Ryanair, all 9H- reg, operated by Ryanair's subsidiary Malta Air. Some of the inbound routes from other European cities are Ryanair mainline, Buzz or Lauda Air. I'm presuming that the creation of subsidiaries is to create competition within the company.
