ms, I hope that you are not reffering to my post, as where in it did I say Charter = Bad?
You are right charter PAX are far better for an airport to to the time they spend in the airport, and they are in a 'spending mood'. Commercial yield is indeed greater with charter PAX. If anything this is even better for Cardiff, with a far higher proportion of passengers being charter ones.
Ideally CWL would be best positioned to have a good mix of pax.
Correct.
