It would depend on what routes it would attract. Xity routes that attract inbound tourism would help to increase the profile of the whole country, I saw that for myself when I flew Iberia to Madrid last year. Long haul routes like Doha are the same, the marketing deal advertises Wales as a country not just the capital.
In the end it should be up to the Welsh government to decide how they use it to benefit Wales not London who don't seem to want Wales to benefit in any way.
