How on earth can a half hourly shuttle bus between the Cardiff and the Airport possibly be financially justified? They have already tried a dedicated service and it didn't generate enough traffic. They are just copying Bristol.
I would say that feeding pax onto the train is probably the best idea at the moment.
BTW- I have often seen up to ten people on the bus- not earth shattering, it has to be said.
What I think they should really do is extend the airport bus as a feeder service from local areas into Rhoose station (e.g. Aberthaw etc) and use the income generated from this social function to offset the airport traffic.
Glad the link is repreived, however.
