As Cardiff gets a lot sporting events for what is a small but wonderful city! I thought I would create a thread dedicated to sport flights whether they are extra scheduled flights or special charters connected to sport in the area.

I only found out today because I asked on a Cardiff Airport ***Links to other Social Media platforms are not permitted***- page a kind of spotters page and SWAG posts them under Champions league news and other events. I got the departure times from the Live flight schedule on the airports website itself as SWAG put them down for when the aircraft roughly arrive at CWL. Guessing info for spotters. The arrival at FCO times I've estimated myself.Given that CWL doesn't seem to produce a Mayfly I'm never sure where to look for the rugby and football club charters. From memory I don't think that SWAG shows them on its arrivals/departures pages
The one thing about CWL's flight information is that is gives generally a week in advance. So it's possible to estimate what the flight may be for.Is there any way of maintaining a full list of rugby and football club flights each week?
It looks like. They do have a 60 seater 737 800 that they adapted for corporate travel and charter work. So it's either the team or some rich fans as I can't see Ryanair using a normal configuration for a sports charter.Is it really Ryanair doing a charter NWI-CWL-NWI?
Yes they are and Swansea City are playing Manchester City. There's a BMI departure for Manchester at 16.00 on the 4/2/17 BM8999 but I can't find the arrival flight.Norwich City are certainly playing a Championship league match at Cardiff City next Saturday.
Unfortunately no! I have been to Rome but not for the rugby it was part of a tour with a cruise and it's a wonderful city especially the historical side and i would recommend it to anyone. I do want to go for the rugby one day though as i've never been to a Six nations away game and would like to one day.Are you going to Rome this weekend, Jerry?
I know there will be lots of Ryanair and Aer Lingus flights but also CityJet are doing some this year.Still hoping for a Wales vs Ireland at Cardiff to get some stuff in like in 2015.
