Cardiff Airport information

Conveniently tucked in the Vale of Glamorgan, Cardiff Airport is just a stone's throw from Rhoose, just west of the city centre. If you're coming from further afield, the airport's around 13 miles from junction 33 on the M14 - perfect for an easy drive-in. If public transport's more your vibe, then Rhoose Railway Station is your go-to for train connections. It's got routes to Cardiff Central and Bridgend, with trains chugging along every hour from Monday to Saturday, and every two hours on Sundays. So, whether you're planning a midweek escape or a weekend getaway, the journey to the airport's gonna be a breeze.

Hold up a sec, though. It gets better! (Yep, it's possible.) To make your trip even smoother, you can pre-book your airport parking through us. That means it's one less thing to stress about, especially when you're planning a last-minute dash. Simply park, fly and let the holiday vibes take over. Bliss.

Airport facilities

The holiday might be the fun bit, but who said the airport can't be just as fun? OK, that might be pushing it, but it doesn't have to be a bore. In our eyes, the holiday starts as soon as you press 'book'... Here's what you can expect once you walk through the doors at Cardiff:

  • Shopping: Need to grab a summery mag, some snacks, or that all-important travel adaptor you most definitely forgot? Thankfully, you can head over to all your trusty faves - including WHSmith, to stock up on all the essentials (and maybe a cheeky bag of M&Ms for the flight)

  • Food and Drink: All that travel excitement is bound to work up an appetite. Luckily, Cardiff Airport's got you well sorted. Fancy a proper coffee? Costa's your go-to for that pre-flight caffeine kick. Or for something a bit more local, you can pop into Caffi Cwtch for all the cosy Welsh charm you could ask for. Or, if you're in the mood for something stronger (hey, no judging - we did brew our own beer once, after all) - there's always The Beer House, on hand to serve you a big frothy pint before take-off. Cheers to that! 🍻

  • Airport Lounges: If you know about our Perks, then you'll know we're well equipped with the ol' airport lounge. If you fancy kicking back in style, the lounges at Cardiff Airport are where it's at. With comfy seating, specialty tea and coffees and a selection of locally-produced snacks, it's the perfect spot to relax before you jet off. And hey, nothing says 'holiday mode' like lounging with a brew and a tasty treat, right?!

Why choose holidays from Cardiff?

Cardiff Airport might not be the biggest and baddest in the UK, but it’s got a lot going for it. For starters, it's less crowded than some of the larger airports, which means fewer queues (always a win), less stress, and a smoother start to your holibobs.

Oh, and let's not forget the convenience factor. If you're based in South Wales, Cardiff is right on your doorstep, saving you the hassle of trekking across the UK to an airport. Although, even if you’re from a bit further afield, Cardiff’s accessibility from the M4 makes it a doddle to reach. Whether you’re heading off on a family jolly, a romantic getaway, or a mates' escape, Cardiff Airport is a solid choice to take off from.
