I doubt flyglobespan would start shorter haul routes from Cardiff, they have had difficulties with aircraft and things over the past few years. I agree that Flybe have made a good expansion at Cardiff, as well as Eastern and Zoom recentally... Skybus and Highland is a service that will always be there. I still think that Thomson are still good for Cardiff, just wish yourself they arent leaving, they are reducing flights at many UK airports with the merge with FCA... we will just have to wait and see.
