Why is the Cardiff operation such a surprise for CityJet? It was a gap left behind when Flybe decided to pull out and passenger numbers suggest that the F50 maybe the correct size against the Q400.
Unlike the Cambridge the flight times tend to cater for the business passenger with leisure routes to Jersey and Paris Orly.
It is a shame that there wasn't a bigger lead time however many passengers that have used the service give it a big thumbs up.
