Sobre Bristol Airport

Bristol Airport (BRS) is the airport for Bristol and South West England. It stands at Lulsgate Bottom in North Somerset, on the A38 at the edge of the Mendip Hills, about 8 miles (13 km) southwest of Bristol city center, and also serves Bath, Weston-super-Mare and much of Somerset.

easyJet, Jet2.com, Ryanair and TUI Airways all base aircraft here, with flights to Spain, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, the Canary Islands and cities across Europe, plus domestic routes to Scotland and Northern Ireland. KLM links Bristol with Amsterdam, Aer Lingus with Dublin and Cork, and Loganair and Aurigny fly to Jersey, Guernsey and Aberdeen. The airport handled about 10.8 million passengers in 2025.

All flights use one terminal, with one security area and a single departure lounge. There are no jet bridges: passengers walk or take a bus to the aircraft. A Transport Interchange with a multi-story parking garage and the bus and coach bays stands a short walk from the terminal.

The airport has no rail link. From here most travelers head into Bristol and Bristol Temple Meads station, east to Bath, to the coast at Weston-super-Mare, across the Severn to Cardiff, or north to Cheltenham and the Cotswolds.

Consejos de llegada a Bristol Airport

Flights from outside the UK and Ireland arrive at the immigration hall, where eligible passport holders can use the eGates and others wait in line at the staffed desks. Most visitors, including those from the EU and the US, need a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) approved before they fly. Flights from elsewhere in the UK, Ireland and the Channel Islands normally skip immigration.

Bristol has one terminal, so everyone collects bags in the same baggage hall and walks through customs, by the green or red channel, into the arrivals hall. Cash machines are available across the airport.

For onward travel, follow the signs to the Transport Interchange, a short walk from the terminal: the Airport Flyer buses to Bristol, Bath and Weston-super-Mare, the coaches to Cardiff and Birmingham, the Drop Off & Pick Up parking garage and the car rental shuttle all leave from there. Cars cannot stop on the airport roads, so pre-booked drivers meet you in the arrivals hall or at the Interchange.

The UK uses pounds sterling and is on GMT, or BST (GMT+1) in summer.
