Hopefully they might try Palma, they are expecting many new planes by summer 24, we could do with some good news.
Idk they seem to making cuts at bases due to delayed aircraft delivery. Would be great to see them take the route on though and I'm also hoping they'd return to the Tenerife route as well. If CWL could get both and possibly an extra frequency on Faro I think that would be fantastic news for the airport!

From the articles it seems these cuts will be winter only and they will then have extra aircraft deliveries in time for summer 2024… But of course that’s an ideal scenario situation.

Dublin was on sale for summer 2024 (daily) but doesn’t seem to be on there anymore…

Very much ‘work in progress’ across their entire network
 
Hopefully FAO and AGP see an increase, although remain doubtful, can’t see BFS returning!

Keeping fingers crossed for TFS to be added, maybe PMI (if not Vueling) MLA too.

If only they could revise some of those dreadful Dublin timings and introduce double daily Fri and Sun which are always sold out, that would be a bonus!

It is now but the times are very late with flights arriving in Dublin at midnight!
Hopefully FAO and AGP see an increase
With Vueling on Malaga i'd be surprised if they increased on there but fingers crossed for Faro!
 
So apparently Ryanair will release the rest of their Summer 2024 schedule from Cardiff at the end of October. I wish they wouldn't leave it so late.

It’s part and parcel of Ryanair. They’ll never release summer so early. I think it’s this time of year into early next airports, particularly those abroad as this won’t count for Cardiff, start confirming slots for airlines.

Unlike the tour operators Ryanair knows it can sell at short notice.

I think the problem with that though now is especially for a small airport like Cardiff is that it's main rival airline Easyjet does seem to acting more like a tour operator now and releasing flights more in advance and many will be looking to book in advance and those potential sales may well have been lost to airports like Bristol and Gatwick.
 
It looks like Ryanair are starting to load up Summer 2024 it's been reported elsewhere that Malaga looks to be going to 3 weekly but Dublin might be going to 6 weekly with the loss of the Wednesday flight. Fingers crossed Faro goes 3 weekly as well and we see some more routes!
 
I didn't think they would increase Malaga, they must be happy with their loads, Faro would be good at 3 per week, let's hope we see Tenerife with them as well. I did notice on the CH Aviation site that Binter Canarias are leasing an Emb 190 later this year, Cwl was a route previously mentioned some time ago that they were interested in.

Fingers crossed, it does look like from June the Wednesday flight for Dublin has been dropped which is a shame but if they increase Malaga and Faro and hopefully add a new route then CWL will be in the plus with Ryanair flights.
 
It is very disheartening when you read airports all over the UK, gaining new routes and passengers, perhaps it will improve if FR and Vueling increase their services from and to CWL, and of course we still have Qatar to come, although it has gone very quiet on that front.

Yes it is a very competitive market when it comes to routes and based aircraft not just in the UK but all across Europe, CWL can only keep engaging with the airlines and hope that turns into flights and routes. With it looking like Ryanair increasing Malaga i do hope it doesn't lead to a reduction by Vueling on that route.

As an aviation enthusiast, it is sad to see Wales main airport really struggling. For me, the only way the airport will fully recover and prosper is a private buyer coming in and investing. The Welsh gov aren’t interested, despite what they may claim. Currently, the airport is stagnating. A private owned company will have staff in specific roles. Aggressively marketing the airport and engaging with airlines. It’s like any business. You have to put yourself about. Knock on on doors and build relationships.
 
We have nobody in the Welsh Government showing any interest in CWL, the Green movement seem to have taken hold of the Labour Party. It is only the TUI shops which are pushing flights from CWL, other agencies such as The Travel House, are pushing JET2 flights from BRS because they are now members of the Hays Independent Travel Group, who obviously have an agreement with JET2. There is so much scope from CWL, for companies like FR, with hardly any competition. It must be really hard work for members of staff at CWL, trying to get airlines to operate from CWL.

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.
