The Welsh Government assesses the growth of Cardiff Airport based on annual passenger numbers, number of jobs that the airport supports and the economic benefits that it brings to the Welsh economy.

The Welsh Government has now carried out due process on the proposed investment package for Cardiff Airport and on 2 April, issued the following Written Statement: Written Statement: Enabling the economic growth potential of Cardiff Airport and the South Wales region (2 April 2025) | GOV.WALES.
