Cardiff Airport chief Debra Barber looks for new airlines

The new managing director of Cardiff Airport says she is determined to reverse the decline in passenger numbers by attracting more airlines.

Debra Barber says she wants to make it the airport of choice over Bristol.

The Welsh government bought the airport for £52m following concerns about a lack of investment by the previous owners.

The latest figures show a 7% drop in the number of passengers in the year to September.
