Question
How many times has the Cabinet Secretary met with officials or executives from Qatar Airways since August 2024?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales
The Airport executive team is leading on the commercial negotiations with the airline regarding the resumption of the Qatar Airways’ Cardiff - Doha service. It would not be appropriate for me to comment further while those negotiations are still underway, other than to say that that I would very much welcome the resumption of the route when the time is right for both the Airport and the operator.
Responsibility for the airport sits outside my portfolio and so I have not personally met with officials or executives from Qatar Airways since August 2024.
