In 2013 Thomson have a full schedule out of CWL, utilising the aircraft as much as possible, whereas over the past few years this hasn't always been the case. There will be 31 flights operated on their own metal, plus Air Europa being chartered for a PMI flight. CWL is never going to be a much bigger base for Thomson like it was in 2006/2007, but this must show confidence in CWL as a regional base.
As for the 787, it may well be seen at CWL, but certainly not for regular Long Haul flying.
There are still destinations that are underserved at CWL, such as FAO, the Canaries and BJV.
