Air Wales (Welsh: Awyr Cymru) was a Welsh airline based at Cardiff International Airport in Rhoose, Vale of Glamorgan.[1] It operated scheduled regional services within the United Kingdom, as well as to Ireland, Belgium and France. On 23 April 2006, Air Wales ceased all operations, citing "spiralling costs" and "aggressive competition" from larger low-cost airlines.[1]
