Surely throwing money to take the airport back over 2.1 million pax and rise it up through the league table is only worth it if there is a tangible benefit to Wales and its economy. For example delivering 300k pax by getting BMI Regional to fly a couple of times a day to some key cities in ERJs would be worth more than getting Vueling to base a couple of airbuses delivering treble the pax but just flying them off to Faro and Ibiza for a week of sun.
