More dreaming
When are these people going to realise that they need to go back to basic's and work from there.
Instead of these stupid pipe dreams the WAG should be having a chat with Flybe and the like to offer them some inducements to set up a base at the airport and then maybe if things do improve move onto the next stage.
You will never compete against the London airports on long haul. For an early morning flight from Heathrow you can get there in 2 hrs if you leave no later than 5am.
Everybody needs to be realistic and think what is best for Cardiff airport and the surrounding area and think what do we need and more importantly does Cardiff need an airport with Bristol 40 miles in one direction and Birmingham around 100 miles to the north and Heathrow 140 miles straight along the M4.
I do think that the airport is hiding behind the WAG as the last think they need is to lose face and admit the airport isn't profitiable.
