US connections

These are the kind of flights that the CWL needs if it cannot sustain direct links. Clearing immigraiton in Dublin will take the strain out of immigration in the US. Long queues at immigration are the worst thing to encounter after a long flight. A connecting service at DUB for JFK makes more sense than AMS. It is a quicker journey not just flight wise but also on arrival in the US. These connections through CWL need to marketed well on both sides of the pond to ensure that the American's know they can reach Wales much easier rather than travelling through England. This is good for both outbound and inbound business and tourism. Let's hope the WAG, Wales Tourist Board and the airport can all work together on this one.
