Ports and Air travel

Our ports play a key role in trade, travel and economic growth. Pursuing the full devolution of port regulation to the Welsh Government, we will work with port authorities, ferry operators, hauliers, and other stakeholders to strengthen the resilience of Welsh ports and maximise their role in European supply chains.

We will ensure Wales’s ports are well-positioned to benefit from emerging industries, including floating offshore wind (FLOW), and the growing cruise market.

We will work to maximise the benefits of the Anglesey and Celtic Freeports while safeguarding high-quality jobs and decent work standards.

A viable international airport is essential for Wales’s global connectivity. We will take a strategic approach to secure Cardiff Airport’s long-term sustainability and seek the devolution of Air Passenger Duty.
