Bristol was a hive of activity around Noon with the extra charters. Rarely seen it so busy on the ground in the middle of the day. Fair to say that ATC and the ground handlers were doing an excellent job. The volume of pax moving around the apron was possibly a record to my eye.
Not sure how the terminal and baggage reclaim were coping but the new scanners and carousels had been brought on line last week so maybe it was OK. Lack of seats in the terminal is now probably the more pressing issue. Nice problem to have.
Why Cardiff can't be like this is a mystery and always will be.
