KLM
With KLM using the E190 for the single flight a day. Does anybody know what the numbers have been like? Do we think they might be looking to reintroduce the morning flight even if just with the E175s? It’s always been a really useful hub airline for Cardiff and the missing morning flight means you miss those transatlantic connections in Amsterdam that allowed travellers the option to avoid trekking to Heathrow.

Qatar
The demand isn't there because of the pandemic and travel restrictions hence why they made the wise decision imo to postpone until March 2022. As for expansion we don't know what they have planned but their CEO is quoted as saying it's not likely that they'll stay at 1 aircraft because 1 aircraft bases aren't economical.
As for Qatar Airways we can just hope they do come back but realistically we can't really expect any return to be in 2022.

Qatar still has a Cardiff page on their website. However, if you try to book it, it offers the train via Paddington.
I believe it, like Birmingham, were suspended rather than cancelled outright.
Being realistic, if the route is going to return, it will not be until the major markets east of Doha (mainly the subcontinent, Thailand and Australia/NZ) are fully open.

I wonder if the new Aer Lingus Regional (Emerald) would pick this up….announced a new BHD base today along with some other U.K. destinations and plans for further destinations to be added. Bit like Stobart Air had planned……who knows but hopefully CWL will be somewhere on that new list.

A look at what Vueling will be offering peak Summer 2022 from the first week of August
Alicante 6 weekly no flight on Fridays
Malaga 4 weekly Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday
Majorca 3 weekly Monday, Wednesday and Thursday
Paris 3 weekly Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday
In total 16 weekly departures, 4 routes and in total 6156 seats

I think the Cardiff airport departures page is not working properly. https://www.cardiff-airport.com/live...on/departures/ seems to suggest there are between 3 and 6 flights per day and many of them are to Dublin, is there an error in the information feed ?
