Cardiff Airport (CWL) is the busiest airport in Wales in the United Kingdom and is well connected to the city centre.
There are different bus lines that carry passengers from the airport. One of them is bus number 905. This bus connects the airport with the nearby train station, Rhoose Station, in a 10-minute journey.
These buses depart simultaneously with the times of the trains departing from Rhoose Station seven days a week. From here, you can get to the main train station in the city center by trains that leave every hour on weekdays and every two hours on Sundays. You can check the times of buses and trains on the official website or the application of the airport.

This bus, which departs from the airport, ends its journey at the Customhouse stop, very close to Cardiff Central Station. This journey takes approximately one hour under normal traffic conditions.
In addition, the T9 bus operated by TrawsCymru, a subsidiary of the Welsh government, carries passengers from the airport to the city center. This bus picks up passengers from the airport and drops them off in front of the Travelodge hotel in Cardiff Bay and behind Cardiff Central Library in the city centre.
