Your post at 0231am on 15th Sep and the majority of posts that followed it. Forgive me for misinterpreting that post, but it eludes to Hub Airports vs direct routes and lists several European cities. No mention of domestic routes, and although it happens, domestic UK travel via Hub Airports is very rare.
GLA, EDI & BHD are European cities but they are also domestic routes which are served regularly by most Airports with good frequencies. Aside from AMS and CDG, the cities you mentioned in your post on 15th Sept aren't high frequency routes from most Airports. Hence the discussion that transpired regarding frequency and convenience. |

I can recall when Air Kilroe started a MAN/CWL/MAN service utilising J31's, at first people were smiling until PDQ the flights were pretty much full, not only is MAN a European city and hub airport but Air Kilroe had a kind of codeshare agreement with Business Air for UK connections to/from the likes of EDI, GLA, DND & ABZ

I'm sure management will do what they feel is best for the business. 25 minutes sound's reasonable especially as I'd have thought that the airport was on skeleton crewing. The drop in numbers is no different from other Flybe reliant airports.
CAA Stats July 2020 3506 passengers used the airport in July down 98% on 2019. The rolling year was 879,000 down 46.5% on 2019. Domestic Humberside 70 Leeds Bradford 67 Liverpool 68 Teesside 66 European Faro 818 -88% Alicante 366 -97% Barcelona 428 -87% Malaga 1623 -89% |

Waiting 25 minutes for your baggage at a regional airport is not reasonable ! They are times more akin to a major hub. Those of us who have worked in this sector would know this type of performance would be wholly unacceptable in a Service Level Agreement. Service dilution under the guise of covid 19 is wearing thin.

And as a paying passenger I think it's a reasonable time as well especially at Cardiff where there's very little walking to do to get to the baggage hall compared to the big airports like Heathrow and Amsterdam.
|
Grim CAA numbers.....

Is Cardiff now inside one of the latest Welsh lockdown areas announced today? Even if it is not passengers can’t get there from lockdown areas.

Was it not the same around this time last year ? They were late releasing the MLA schedule for most UK airports and not just a CWL issue.....are there any other UK airports on the schedule ? I thought MLA was one of their popular routes ex CWL
