How much was it? I recently flew from Bristol and had a 3 hour wait, but it soon passed.

Driving back from Bristol at 2 am was a nightmare. M4 shut, diverted around Newport, then Granddaughter threw up all over the car. I had to stop and clean it up and ended up gagging myself. What an end to a holiday.


I bet there was carrots, and potentially the odd yellow corn bits.

It was mostly white lumps. She had a burger king at Faro airport, could have been the chips. Didn't half stink though. She does get some travel sickness, so it will be tablets before any future long journey.

Following the report by the Independent Regulator are there doubts that the Senedd have thoroughly thought through the proposed £205M investment?

A response from Bristol Airport. It also confirms that 20% of Bristol Airports 10M passengers are Welsh, 2M Welsh passengers compared to Cardiff Airports total 800,000 passengers.

Just need someone who understands how to run an airport, rather than a bunch of useless local councillors, to hoover up the waiting customers.

I thought the one in Cardiff was good value for money, you can use it 3 hours before flight and a good variety of food and drink.

I was flying at 2 30pm so worked out well, would definitely use it again

I'm actually surprised it's only 20%.

I'm flying to Spain a week on Sunday, from Bristol, there is no flight from Cardiff to the same destination for another 4 weeks.

We're flying from Cardiff later this year which is great and something we'd do every time but as already said many times if the flight isn't on the destination board then what can you do.

Luckily Cardiff goes to Zante which I visit twice a year, but Bristol has a much greater choice and value for money

A lot will depend on the prcing and times of the flights.

I reckon a big problem facing Cardiff, should it actually become very pooular, could turn out to be the roads. At the wrong time of day getting there is a pain and if it (excuse the pun) takes off and the roads are busier all the time then the pricing will be pivotal.

As it goes, much as I disagree with the Senedd buying it, we use cardiff because we can afford the extra cost, it's easy to get to from our house (we're literally 2 mins from the M4) and the whole place is so quiet and easy to manoevre through.

Just read the comments attached. One or two in support but the majority are citing the major reasons why Cardiff is not a viable option for them.

1m Welsh heading to Bristol . I suggest to you the vast majority would fly from Cardiff if the options were available .

One wonders why Bristol Airport cannot buy Cardiff off the Senedd and serve their customers closer to home and still profit cutting carbon.

Bridge tolls might return when a new bridge over the A48 is required.

2M Welsh flew from Bristol last year not 1M, as I said read the comments for the reason why. It also looks if the Senedd will not be allowed to subsidise Cardiff Airport if the Competition and Markets Authority get their way.

FYI, TUI have announced extra destinations plus extra flights weekly on existing destinations from next year.

Hurghada, Faro and Fuerteventura are the new ones.

Bristol announced a £400m investment in October 2024. Private money right ? Not the Welsh subsidy of £200m.

In the last few days the investor has been identified. NATS the privatised air traffic controller firm.

It is 51% owners by HM Government. Do not worry about Wales they will fight amongst themselves. We have unionists over there.

Scunthorpe all over again. Shut Wales invest in England. If we do not fight for ourselves the English will not. Common sense really. Let the plebs travel to Bristol is only adds an hour extra.

Surely even you can understand the difference between investment from a company with shareholders and a subsidy from a government using public money. Which incidentally may be outlawed by the competition authority's.

New bridge over the A48? What?

This is why I said pricing will be pivotal because people will still go to Bristol if the holiday is hundreds of pounds cheaper. That is what Cardiff is fighting against, the lose money on every passenger and many more passengers may not turn that around, they may have to increase prices further, certainy must if they were to improve the infrastructure at the airport which is also needed because the car parks are often full with their traffic now.

My issue with th Senedd funding CWL is purely to do with that money being needed for more important things, schools, the NHS, roads...social care, all desperate for money because their services are failing.

The £400 m " investment" is from NATS.

A public-private partnership the UK government holds 49% and a golden share, with 42% held by the Airline Group, 5% by NATS staff, and 4% by UK airport operator LHR Airports Ltd

48%. of £400m is £192m. One is an investment of taxpayers money £192 in the next year or two the other is a gift or subsidy over10 years. UK Government is also supporting Doncaster. These are wealth creators potentially.

CWL already support 4000 jobs all paying tax. The UK Government cannot be allowed close down another employer in Wales.

The airport suppogets4000 taxpaying jobs in Maintenance and freight. We need to get people back k to work and paying tax.

Jobs in developing fields is also important..Reducing traffic on the road helps with 4 million unneeded journeys some over that creaking A48 bridge ( the first seven bridge is approximately 60 years old)

Swansea folk on hear complain about Bryn Glas Tunnels then say I'm off to Bristol Airport.

That's good news, I'm considering a holiday to Hurghada next year but there is at least double the number of flights to there from Bristol so my departure airport will depend on cost and convenience.

It's not new holiday locations we need to fly to from Cardiff it's of little benefit to Wales plc. It's major European cities we need to target. WG should be trying to get a Ryanair or easyJet hub in CWL instead of Bristol, we need to incentivise those.

There's no point in the national air traffic service investing somewhere where there is little air traffic though.
