Cardiff: Rugby, Football and General Sport Flights & Charters

[superking]

It looks like both rotations will arrive and depart in darkness. It sort of looks they have something to hide lol.

A few rugby and football flights coming up over the next few days starting today.
At 20.45 an Azerbaijan Airlines A320 will arrive from Baku with the Azerbaijan football team to play Wales on Thursday. That looks like it will depart at 01.05 on the 7/9/19 but whether the aircraft will stay on the ground at CWL or ferry empty back to and then from Baku is unknown.
On the 5/9/19 Stobart Air will operate flights to Dublin at 14.05 and 15.20, I can only find 1 return for them at 20.35 on 7/9/19.
Also on the 7/9/19 Belavia Belorussian Airlines will be arriving at 12.35 bringing the Belarus football team to play Wales on Tuesday.

Belavia was a CRJ200 which arrived from Tallinn

A Croatian Airlines A319 visited the airport earlier today arriving at 13.36 and departing at 14.42 after dropping off the Croatian national football team who are playing Wales tomorrow in an Euro 2020 qualifier.

No private charter for the women heading to Belfast! Looks like it was Flybe for them.

I imagine it will be Titan Airways. I believe the Enter Air is actually a charter flight.

Also Jerry, a further flight to Baku at 1400 on 14th operated by Titan Airways, and Jet2 arrival at12.35 on15th from Shannon

I think that's probably Munster arriving for their Champions cup game with the Ospreys.

A potential shock twist could mean Wales fans not flying anywhere but having games in Wales!
The world anti doping agency has requested that UEFA not hold games in St Petersburg and Cardiff could potentially host those games which could include Wales.

That would be good for the Welsh team, the country and the airport.

Yep fingers crossed!

 

[mathers_wales_uk]

Not going to happen. They won’t have the guts to strip Russia of their games.

In fairness, the football governing bodies are renowned for making the correct decisions for the good of the game... Even in the face of money and power...... Right?
*Cough* Qatar *Cough*

I suppose we can hope but it's probably a slim hope!
