Cardiff Airport has partnered with Nuffield Health to offer an onsite Covid-19 testing service.
The testing facility is now open, enabling customers travelling for essential reasons to get a Covid-19 test at the airport before their flight, as well as to the public who want to take a test for non-travel related purposes.
Passengers flying into Cardiff Airport can also use the service to book Covid-19 tests to meet their arrival and quarantine requirements.
The testing centre, located in the Arrivals Hall of the terminal, offers Gold Standard PCR tests with results available in four or 48 hours and Lateral Flow Antigen tests with results in one hour, with all tests analysed at the on-site laboratory.
All tests required for international travel are available, and Nuffield Health staff are there to guide customers through the testing journey, and screenings are carried out by trained professionals in full PPE.
Ceri Mashlan, director of operations at Cardiff Airport said: “The safety and security of our team and customers is our number one priority, and we’re pleased to partner with Nuffield Health to offer our customers and the general public a convenient COVID-19 testing service located at the Airport.
"As an approved private screening provider, customers can be assured that all tests offered by Nuffield Health are highly accurate and meet the required standards for international travel.
“Testing will be a key factor in travel for the foreseeable future, and as we prepare to welcome more passengers to the Airport, it is important that we can provide this facility to enable customers to easily access Covid-19 testing services before they fly.”
