Maybe you didn't select direct route or you got the Ryanair "Barcelona" which is anything up to 200KM away. Easyjet are the only ones running that route directly and currently they offer 2 at most a day. Last week trying to go back to BCN they only had 1 option so i went from Birmingham.Originally Posted by Zenith
Back to the original quote, when I was booking I had a choice of 7:30, 10:30, 1:30, 4:30, 7:30pm, 9:30pm
Im only going off the options I had at the time, which was only six weeks ago

The Barry line is within spitting distance, but you're way off with the pontyclun one.
The usual line is it'll be a lot easier and cheaper to add more stations to the lines after electrification
Was the 10:30 via Sydney?

Just looking at rail map, says there is a station at rhoose already?? What is the problem with extending it to the terminal then??
Can't be far....
As I've said above, a spur off the line directly into the terminal would be 1.5 miles of track and would cost around £15m. Contrast this to the Eastern bay link road that's nearing completion, which is roughly the same length but is costing approximately £72m.
By my calculations if we could reduce it to 1.4 miles of track it would cost around £14m
How about a walking escalator?
