Wales see Manchester NOT Heathrow as the principal gateway.
Isn't Cardiff on the direct line to Reading and then Heathrow? Surely you mean North Wales, CWL/BRS is hugely impacted by the LHR halo.
In other news, toying with the idea of using MAN T1 for a long haul trip with Transat on the A310 this summer, is this the last full summer of the old C pier being operational? Never been through that part of the airport.
Cheers!
