Mynt Travel have being doing a Cardiff Airport day on their Facebook-- page with all sorts of different holidays from Spain to cruises to Lapland deals.
That’s great to hear. There’s a page on Facebook that constantly churns out deals from Cardiff airport. Whilst perhaps more low-key it does get a lot of traction and shows that it doesn’t cost an arm + leg to travel from CWL.
I’ve got a Tui flight to Lanzarote booked in the summer hols with a free child space. It was no more expensive than other airports, even compared with Jet2 & EasyJet holidays. (Still more than I’d like to pay as my other half is a teacher so I’m signed up to pay more 😉).

Yep there's one called Cardiff Airport Flights and Deals that does a great job in advertising what's available and promoting Cardiff Airport.
 
That page also has more followers than the official CWL Facebook-- page!

42k and growing fast vs CWLs 35k
I'm not surprised! Whoever is behind the page deserves a medal for their dedication and work!
I've seen that page and does well in promoting holiday deals and flights from CWL. You still the usual moaners and haters on there though, but you can't get away from that anywhere on social media these days.
Yep unfortunately especially when it comes to Cardiff there'll always be haters.
 
LOVE Holidays an On line travel operator, has come to an agreement with RYANAIR, to use their airline for their holiday flights. Ryanair has taken some of the OTA companies to court during the past year, including ",On the Beach" amongst others, for screen scraping their flights and adding further costs to them. Ryanair won the case, but lost some passenger numbers as a result. They are however happy with the agreement with Love Holidays. This is good news for CWL passengers who will have a greater choice of holidays, and may persuade FR to increase their flights from CWL, which are desperately needed, especially with the bad news from KLM.
 
I can't see BRS supporters accepting anything this side of the bridge, not when their airport is doing so well at 9.8 million passengers this year. Although they have just launched a campaign to get a further 1 million passengers local to their area, who they believe still travel to London to begin their journeys.

Looping back on this, I’ve just seen Ryanair now have an agreement with kiwi.com. I imagine more to come in the near future.
 
The Cardiff Parkway site near Hendre Lake gets my vote!
Well the original Cardiff Airport used to be where the Celsa steelworks is now by tremorfa.

Any South West UK airport is going to be the other side of the Severn it's just the more logical site and yes Bristol does lose a lot of passengers from it's area to London airports specifically Heathrow and Gatwick but I'd also expect Luton as well.
 
If there is an opportunity to develop a Car-tol or Bris-diff airport close to railway line and Bridge then its worth a look! Caldicot International? 😉

Llanwern was mooted once wasn't it? That's clearly not possible now but land to the south of Undy may work? Will need a new rail station and road off the M4 but neither is impossible.

As an aside, it would be interesting to see if the Unionist faction of our politic wld support Wales over England.
 
It's a bit disappointing that the Scottish 6 nations game has not generated any extra flights. I know not many Scots fly down for this match, but it appears as though the Scottish team is not even flying into CWL.
 
I think traditionally it's more popular when the match is in Edinburgh. Most Scots will travel by bus or car so it seems.

Hi, I was born and lived in B36 for a long time - Lindale Avenue, just around the corner from Hodge Hill Comp.
I just noticed your postcode on a post.

Do you still live in the area?
survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 2nd time
If you’re tired of takeoffs, you’re tired of life.
49 trips undertaken last year. First done this year which was to North Wales where surprisingly the only slippery surfaces were in Conwy with the castle and it's walls closed due to the ice.
