Manx2 in Wales

I guess they might have a look at Cardiff-Guernsey, a route not covered for a considerable time - they fly from Gloucester to Jersey - and I believe that some people think that MAN and LBA are gaps in the network.

And what about Pembrey Airport? Isn't that becoming more active for small commercial aircraft? Perhaps it could be packaged in Ryanair-speak as Swansea West.

Maybe if there was, say, a two-aircraft base serving Wales and based at CWL some flights could be organised from Pembrey to serve West Wales - perhaps to the Channel Islands.

If the WAG is spending all this public money on the government shuttle it would surely hope to see a better return in the form of an extended Manx2 network in and around Wales.

It wouldn't surprise me if the shuttle didn't go to 3 x daily. I'm not saying it should, just that it wouldn't surprise me.
