CONGRATULATIONS to the staff at Cardiff Wales Airport for negotiating the return of Ryanair to Cardiff with flights to Tenerife starting on October 30.

It certainly justifies the decision of the Welsh Assembly in purchasing the airport and it does make you wonder what the previous owners were doing to bring airlines to the airport.

Surprising there has been no comment from the leader of the Tories in the Assembly, Andrew R T Davies and the Vale of Glamorgan MP Alun Cairns as they have been highly critical of the Assembly's purchase of the airport.
