Many thanks for that.

You express doubt about EK filling a daily 330 from CWL to DXB. Is it not more likely the route would operate perhaps three times a week and/or in conjunction with another UK airport? Perhaps somewhere like DSA as has been suggested.
Speaking of DSA, there is a current thread suggesting it will be Ryanair's next base. However, two posters to that thread assert FR's next base won't be DSA but BRS.
All good fun to keep the rumour mill turning.

NCL v MME can be a bit of a partisan argument at times as well.
Incidentally, there has been a traditional rivalry between the cities of Bristol and Cardiff for many years and not just in aviation.
