Cardiff Airport
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, whether his Department has made an estimate of the average number of flights each (a) day, (b) week, (c) month and (d) year between Cardiff International Airport and destinations in countries that are signatories to the Open Skies agreement.
- Answer
-
By Open Skies agreement, we have understood the question to refer to the recently agreed Open Skies agreement with the US, which will replace the existing EU aviation agreement with the US. The deal ensures that planes flying from the UK will continue to have the same access they currently have to the US, ensuring the UK maintains its place as one of the world’s leading aviation hubs.
Currently there are no direct scheduled passenger services that run between the US and Cardiff Airport.
