The growth in passenger numbers from Bristol is pretty amazing.
Yes it does attract a lot of people from South Wales but I'd imagine that it's more likely down to the massive Easyjet base rather than any like or dislike of Cardiff. Being the bigger airport with the more destinations it has a big advantage over not just Cardiff but Exeter as well. The passenger number rise from most of the area is pretty good in general over the last 5 years and will no doubt continue.
