The QR flight is making money with the cargo on board only, technically it doesn't need any passengers to make a profit on the route. July and August figures for the pax are doing very well indeed. Inbound pax are good as well and bringing in a variety of foreign tourists in particular Japanese. So the flight is starting to do what the Welsh Assembly wanted more tourists to Wales. 👍 Cardiff City centre seems to have a bigger mix of foreign tourists. So that can only be good for Wales finances. I am not a fan of the Welsh Assembly, but what they have done with Cardiff Airport seems to be working well at the moment.
