Cardiff Airport has celebrated 10 years of Ryanair flights.

Since October 30, 2014, more than 685,000 passengers have flown from Cardiff to holiday destinations across Europe with Ryanair.

The Irish low-cost airline currently operates flights between Cardiff and a number of destinations including the Algarve (Faro), Costa Blanca (Alicante), Costa del Sol (Malaga), Canary Islands (Tenerife), and the Republic of Ireland (Dublin).
