Not sure if this has been mentioned, but this is a massive coup for CWL, Welsh Government and the whole region as a whole.

I'm hoping this will finally bring about direct road and rail links to the airport, plus an extension of the Terminal Building.
Bristol airport will be seething :hehe:
Agreed Arfur.
Work is starting to upgrade 5 Mile Lane early next year. I know that a new direct M4 junction/link is being looked at again but as always it comes down to money. Perhaps that Cardiff City region thing can sort it
Good news for me, I live in Qatar!!
Hopefully this is the start. I swear someone must have been taking a bung to mismanage Cardiff airport for so long
Qatar Airways will be long gone from Rhoose before the Red Rosette has finished their endless inquiries into proposed routes on how to get from the airport gates to the terminal building. Bristol Airport will reap the reward and develop the business once the incompetence of the Red Rosette has been given a world stage to expose their lunacy governing Wales.Quote:

Edit:, can i blame brexit before ETHB does :thumbup:
Would you be happy to see CWL fail just to be able to bash the Red Rosette (as you put it)?Quote:

Suddenly the world and the Far East are finally accessible without going to London. Big time. Don't think the road link is so important to be honest, it's never busy at the moment is it? A rail link with a terminal by the airport us the one and there is a line to rhoose is there not? Surely it could be extended by a mile?Quote:
