The airport is located at Rhoose, 19km (12 miles) southwest of the city centre. As a regional airport, it is much smaller than the major UK international hubs. Even so, it handles currently about 1.5 million passengers annually, with a capacity for 3 million.

Airport facilities: Banking and exchange facilities are available. There is also a 24-hour information desk, ATMs, duty-free shops, restaurants, cafes, pubs and car hire from Avis, Europcar and Hertz.

Business facilities: There is no business centre in the airport. There is an executive lounge in the departures lounge, with Internet access, fax and photocopiers, as well as refreshments and newspapers. Fax and photocopying facilities are available at the information desk in the main terminal.

Transport to the city: A rail link connects Cardiff International Airport to Cardiff Central and Bridgend via a free shuttle bus to Rhoose Cardiff International Station. Trains run each direction every hour, with onward connections possible to other destinations on the rail network.
