Benjiman1994 -What makes you think Monarch will be "loco enough" if Baby aren't?!?! They have a comparible, if not higher cost base and their brand is virtually unknown in Wales.
It will be very expensive to market the brand unless they offer a significant number of services from CWL.

I believe the way forward for CWL is another airline like TOM and TCX, this lies with MON. People are starting to come back aboard many flights in summer from CWL rather than BRS because CWL has more favorable flight times this year at CWL. Boost in numbers I hope.

benjiman1994-
Firstly, with what figures are you referring to that you can be so sure that people are coming back to CWL from BRS?
Secondly, I am intrigued to know which flight times are more favourable in CWL rather than BRS.....? Its definitely not any of the Scheduled flights, and the reason that the charters from BRS may have more unsociable flight times is that both TCX and TOM are utilising there aircraft more than they are at CWL as there is a DEMAND for it.

Benjamin, I totally disagree with your comments, unless you can back it up with statistics.
The reality is that CWL is loosing passengers like a leaky bucket and will not easily get them back without a large commitment from a carrier such as Ryanair (unlikely), easyjet (unlikely) or jet2. It will soon become a regional airport with a few summer/winter charters.
That view may be different from that of a baggage handler of course

Very sceptical of anything posted on Wiki. A few months ago it was posted that BE were launching several routes which never happened, think GCI was one. Would be great if true, but with it being on Wiki and how talks ''apparently'' have gone with LS and CWL I find this very hard to believe. Looks like at least 2 based aircraft if true.

Jet2 @ CWL - Wiki
Looking at history of edits to the CWL airport Wiki page, it seems that only yesterday, Sat 2nd July, the whole Jet2 line was added with the proposed new routes......

So even if there were a Jet2 fleet parked on the tarmac at Rhoose International Aerodrome you still wouldn't believe it unless an official announcement were made?

One or two of you are sailing too close to the wind! We are reluctant to close the CWL forum but we will remove your ability to post - for quite a while. Hope that is clear.

Have emailed 2L about winter schedule at CWL. CWL-ZRH will continue for the Winter season but schedule still not finalised.
Also TCX is to fly twice weekly to FUE (up one from 2010) and to PFO (no longer seasonal) for the winter season on top of the usual 2 weekly TFS, 1 weekly ACE and one weekly LPA. This will be joined by NBE in Feb.
