By 30 October 2026 Cardiff Airport had taken down the website these facts were read from. Nothing from those pages is shown, and any row still being checked is waiting on the new site. The new site’s own words: “This website is currently undergoing improvements.”

How long after landing do passengers come out at Cardiff Airport?
Still checking what Cardiff Airport publishes on this.
Our planner: we allow 20 minutes from landing to the kerb after a domestic or Irish flight, 30 after other short-haul and 42 after long-haul (5 hours or more in the air), plus 15 with a checked bag (assumed after long-haul) and 10 if you ask for extra time at passport control. A planning estimate, not the airport’s figure.
