Getting Qatar back to Cardiff is vital for any significant growth, passenger numbers were strong and growing and a worthy benefit of avoiding a 3+ hours up to London for a lot of people. I flew Adelaide to Cardiff return for £680 back before Covid with only the 1 stop.

I hate using Bristol airport, it takes me longer to get to/from some of the boarding gates than it does to get back to Wales, I don’t think I’ve seen gates so far from the terminal in any other airport.
