Instead of giving more money to CWL, the Welsh Government should create a small regional airline to serve Wales - I wonder if this would ever be an option or just wishful thinking

Bit like the Air Wales days with 1 to 2 ATR 42 size aircraft to serve BHD,DUB & CDG as the core routes initially.

Before BMI baby, Air Wales were more or less due to start EDI & GLA which meant they had to look at other routes which were not as popular.

There is an obvious market for most of the ex Flybe routes from CWL notably these 3 destinations. Many may think that if they were that popular they’d be snapped up already but with the current market & situation not feasible for other regional airlines like Eastern, Aurigny or Loganair but surely a different story if Wales had its own well managed airline?

Just my thoughts on the whole of the situation following this week.
