I would echo the sentiments of this thread. Swansea was acquired by new management last year, and has since been lovingly nursed back to health.
I have since landed there on numerous occasions and the growth of the place is a joy to see.
Definitely one to support.
One the Cardiff point, the secret is to call the Aeroclub ahead of your arrival. If you are happy to be "handled" by them, and to park on the South side, there will be no handling fee.
