Interestingly out of the top 4 routes 3 are CWLs main hub routes AMS, DOH and DUB.
 
CWL had 178,681 passengers in September, up 7% on last year, and up 8% on the rolling year, 1.56 million passengers so far this year. CWL's( newspage)
 
That's pretty good considering KLM operated a reduced schedule during that month as well.

Cardiff Airport jets into winter with more passenger growth
Passenger figures in September reflected another month of growth, welcoming over 178,681 passengers, which represents an increase of 7% compared to the same month last year.
Over the last 12 months more than 1.56 million customers have flown to and from Cardiff, making use of the Airport as a point of departure and a key gateway to the UK.
As we move into the winter season, Cardiff Airport is reflecting on a number of exciting developments, including:
  • Ryanair has announced two new routes for Summer 2019 to Malta and Barcelona, doubling its choice of routes by complementing existing services to Faro and Tenerife

  • Flybe has released its entire Summer 2019 schedule, adding additional flights to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Paris Charles de Gaulle

  • TUI announced the addition of an aircraft at its Cardiff base for summer 2019, which will add 100,000 extra seats and new flights to Dubrovnik (Croatia), Naples (Italy), Enfidha (Tunisia) and Hurghada (Egypt)

  • Thomas Cook have extended their summer schedule to start in April 2019, as well as adding a new route to Enfidha (Tunisia)

  • Announced as part of a joint venture with the Welsh Government, Cardiff Airport will take over the operation, management and maintenance of the St Athan airfield and business park in 2019

  • The completion of a £4 million investment into the improvement of the customer experience within the terminal and the commencement of further works to enhance the security search process, by installing the latest technology tray return systems

Deb Barber, CEO of Cardiff Airport, said:
“As we wrap up the busiest summer in ten years and look forward to the next season of flying, it’s promising to see passenger figures continuing to grow.
“Our airlines, like Flybe for example, are continuing to respond to this contagious confidence by adding more and more capacity to popular routes like Glasgow, Edinburgh and Paris.
“With strong monthly results such as September’s 7% increase and 8% passenger growth for the rolling 12 months, we are well on track to deliver the double digit growth projected at the beginning of the year.
“Our work continues to deliver a sustainable airport business which encompasses a diverse portfolio of products and services, but, more than anything, we are passionate about flying the flag for Wales and proudly acting as a key gateway to the UK for international visitors.”

Out of interest, how many rotations did KLM not operate because of airport restrictions? How many pax would this equate to using average LF's?

The evening flight was cut for most of it so 1 rotation a day comprising of 176 less seats a day so roughly under 5000 seats less in September so potentially about 4000 passengers or more less on the route.
 
Some of those passengers though might have ended up going or coming back via Paris CDG so it'll be interesting to see what impact it had on AMS and CDG.
 
CAA Stats September 2018
178,482 passengers used the airport in September up 7.2%. The rolling year was 1,560,493 up 7.9% on 2017. Atms were 1699 up 2.3%.
 
Pax figures look good. Lets hope it continues. With these figures I hope the yield is good with them.

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!
If anyone would like to share their local airport news right here in our news area let me know so I can give you the correct permissions to do so. It only takes a couple of minutes to upload a news story with an accompanying image. The news items can then be shared on the site homepage by you. #TakePart #Forums4airports Bring the news to one place!
survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
