Hello all, very new to the boards in Cardiff here!

I am trying to find flight information to get one way, from BOSTON to CARDIFF - don't mind changes, but as cheap as possible - for August (travel is completely flexible).

I was looking at going to Dublin, then changing and flying Ryanair - but it looks like Ryanair have stopped their flights to Cardiff!

I went to the Airwales website - they seem to have shut down!

Does anyone know what goes to Cardiff and what sort of combination I can get to be the cheapest from Boston -> Cardiff.

I was looking at the main airlines like British Airways and Virgin Atlantic but they don't seem to offer much discount for one way prices compared to a return, and I don't really want to pay £400+ for a one way flight.

Am ideally looking to pay no more than £250 which in August I know is going to be a bit tough, but if I have to pay upwards of £350-£400 I at least want it to go direct to Cardiff and not have to travel on the coach from London.

    Try https://www.bmibaby.com you could fly to Amsterdam then onto Boston or you could go to Dublin with Air arran then onto Boston, if it was me I would fly from Manchester direct and book a hotel with parking which will probably be about the same cost as flying to either Amsterdam or Dublin

    KLM would be an option - I think they have a 'code-share' with NWA. Won't be as cheap as you want though.

    When I used KLM they were going to dump me in London on New Years Eve. I've heard from othera that they too have had flight cancellations flying into Cardiff on KLM.

    Could go Newark to Bristol - Continental is a scheduled flight and just grab a train over to cardiff or get someone to pick you up from Bristol - had a nice time in New York for a week when we did this earlier this year.
