I respectfully don’t agree with all your points and don’t think HuY and MME are great comparisons. I am sure we will not agree.

CWL has survived as a result of the Welsh taxpayer, which I agree...

Carrrdiff - Well you just gave one example of what management can do - what did the management at BOH and EXT do ? What did LPL do ? Same airlines, same competitive industry with nearby airports....

That’s my point - these are the same extenuating circumstances that would be affecting every other UK airport - what is different at Cardiff ? In fact at the moment you could argue that the...

FR growth is small, yes a couple of new destinations but they have lost 3 flights a week to DUB.

The management may not directly impact the KL decision per set but it is more evidence of the malaise that is impacting the airport. They have not on a macro level attracted the critical mass...
