1. Get rid of the A310 2. More A319, MD-80/90 or 737 3. An additional hub. Open routes to all excisting gates from this new hub.

Use 'Gate Search', that will help you find the most suitable gates for you: http://www.airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/gate_search.php
If you upgrade to premium gate search, you'll be able to specify your search much more.
Otherwise, go to 'Rent Gate', and select the view 'Sort by Continent' in the drop down-menu. Then select Europe, and sort the results by passenger number, that way you'll be able to see which airports are big, and which ones you don't have a gate in.
I hope this helps!
PS Additional hub could be Palma?

With your DOC right now, you will be quickly losing money from all of the maintenance costs from your A310 and A319.
1. Buy nothing but planes that cost 5-8M, get the one with the most pax. 2. Make sure every plane has no more than 0:05 hours left. 3. Fly to every, single airport within 500mi of BCN. It doesn't matter how small they are. 4. As your DOC increases, you can buy (slightly) more expensive aircraft (like 10-12M range). 5. Once you can afford the costs to open a new base as well as enough aircraft to fly 40 routes, then open a new base. 6. Repeat step 3 for the new base, all the while flying to every, single airport within 1000mi of BCN.

You should only be purchasing aircraft roughly 3-4x DOC (which would be roughly 6-8M for you right now). You should replace whatever you have on any route out of BCN to any 150k (or above) airport, starting with the closest ones.

My apologies, I didn't know this was a Large World.
While the basic strategies remain the same, I've no idea how to really tackle these kinds of worlds.

A "Large World" has only a fraction of all airports available in the game.
