Bristol Airport Recensioni 

I've used Bristol many times. In recent years it's got uncomfortably busy and the parking more expensive. This said it's been a reasonable airport until now.
However the last time I travelled I had a particularly bad experience using the Silverline boarding. I'm not going into it and have complained officially but simply the worst customer experience ever in my life. I will genuinely avoid this airport in the future as much as possible.

Beware when paying for fast track!
A recent trip my friend and i we t through the fast track security gate to find it closed. We were directed to join.
The queues at the other end. I mentioned we had paid for fastrack only to be told it was closed and they pointed to us joining the back of the queue. I wrote to Bristol airport to demand my money back and they refused. This is not acceptable they are miselling a service that was not provided.

If only I could give zero stars. What a rip off of an airport. Paying to stop to drop off people for two minutes. I know airports are a rip off but you should be ashamed of this. You have a captive audience that have no other option other than driving through the airport and you take advantage and rip them off. You are making a fortune out of this despicable policy. Shame on you. Hope you can sleep at night you vile people.

For a start, the buses from the Silver Zone are badly designed for getting on and off comfortably with luggage, so that could have been a priority. The walk from the drop-off to the terminal is much worse: longer and not even covered. The old drop-off next the terminal was better. Fast track security was a con: very slow. As for getting on and off the plane, hauling even small luggage up and down steps, including plane steps, and having to change levels up and down, is primitive. One point about the ‘new’ road link which needs passing on to the Highways Authority: signage and road markings are dangerously confusing and much better lighting is needed. Hope the next improvements include an easier way to access the gates from the sitting area.

We travel through Bristol Airport to Canary Island regularly. The last Fast track experience was poor, as it was closed and we were herded with everybody else. Surely lightening cannot strike twice - yet again it did. We paid for Fast Track on September 17th and it was again closed. This time my husband wrote and complained. but the reply came to me, as I had made the booking. No apology, no explanation just a standard reply quoting their T&C's saying we were given priority at general entry - which we were not. There was nobody there who even checked our boarding documents. My husband sent a rebuttal email and surprise, surprise, Customer Services ignored us. We are still waiting any redress. We have paid on two occasions, with no service on either. The overall treatment of passengers at this airport is poor and the Management does not seem to care. I think I will travel via Birmingham next time and vote with our feet. I wish I could give them NO STARS as they do not deserve any. Truly shocking Customer service!

Booked special assistance for my two disabled companions and this failed to materialise leaving us stranded on the tarmac in pouring rain. Staff not interested in helping. Why advertise yourself as autism friendly when you can not get something so basic correct?

Bristol airport is a functional facility. The bus and coach area is a good addition since I was last there.
But........
The toilets are appalling! Dirty, puddles on the floors, broken seat and blocked toilets. It is clear that no-one is keeping an eye on the state of them. Do better please!

““We've invested over £60m on transforming the entrance to the airport, creating a smoother arrival and departure. Opened in July 2025, this new facility enhances our public transport and car park offering.””

Whilst presumably drooling over the original beautiful model of the proposed plans, why did everyone in the room fail to notice there is an uncovered 80m section that EVERY passenger must cross!?!?
In all weathers?!?!
At little extra cost?!?
With absolutely no foresight required?!?!

Just could not make this up 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Arrived at Car park zone and caught the shuttle bus to the airport.
After all the millions spent on new layout etc,etc be prepared for a soaking if it's raining when you get off the shuttle to the check in.
Absolutely no cover from 1 link to be other.
What a JOKE.
Don't think you'd get that anywhere else.
Absolutely no thought for passengers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Horrible no stopping zone with signage presumably obscured by scaffolding resulted in multiple fines in 10 minutes while trying to read car park rules sign outside Hilton. Will try to avoid ever using Bristol Airport again.

Poor direction signs, silver parking post code so new does not show on many sat naves. In heavy traffic took wrong exit at roundabout onto a gated road, so stopped to ask directions. On return to UK £100 fine.Appealed to excel parking admitting mistake.appeal rejected. Having used Gatwick & Heathrow without hassle Bristol is unsatisfactory.

£100 fine for dropping off disabled!!! What an appalling airport this has become. The road layout has changed completely for dropping off disabled passengers and I stopped on yellow lines to try to figure out where to go as the usual drop off was no longer available for disabled. This brief stop ended up with a £100 fine, which is a total disgrace, as no consideration is given to the disabled during the airports building and construction works. If you are disabled I suggest you use an alternative and more friendly airport.

What A Joke. 3 planes arrive at the airport late Saturday evening. You go along the long corridor and then into the Gents toilets. There are no urinals just 3 cubicles to use even though you only need a Wee. Then you are faced with a smelly shit stained toilet to look at while you look at where you are Weeing. Then you have to wait for your wife who has gone into the Ladies toilet for a Wee, to find out there were only 2 cubicles in the Ladies toilet. Then you join the long queue to go to Passport Control to be face with grumpy staff and then grumpy passport control personnel. After getting through and collecting your suitcase, you then have to walk along distance to get the bus to the carpark instead of getting onto the bus outside the airport exit doors. This airport is disgusting.

Your security staff are rude and aggressive. We totally understand the need for security but there is no reason to shout at passengers. Fast track was exactly the opposite dont waste your money. If you are travelling from Bristol airport please be aware that security have had numerous complaints against them - we were gobsmacked by the way we were treated.

The arrival of my plane from Berlin on 27th October coincided with the arrival of at least one other plane. All the arriving passengers, somewhere between 400-500 were shepherded into the same corridor prior to entering the passport hall. The passengers were at least 6 deep across the corridor and stretching back about 100 metres, more if the entering corridors are taken into account and the chaos in the passport hall. This represents a serious safety risk as there were no apparent safety exits in the corridor. The crowding was dangerous and claustrophobic. The situation needs to be examined for fire risk safety and health and safety more generally. The situation was very worrying.

Pitiful transport links, forcing you to arrive by car. Currently undergoing construction, with a poorly thought out road layout and signage. Drop & Go is extortion at £10 for 10 mins. Best avoided, use Heathrow.

long walk in very wet conditions comiing back from Tenerife 27/10/2025 then terrible walk with luggage and steps through terminal who designed this shambles of a terminal .will never fly from here again .I will drive to better airport than this miles away rather than suffer this DIRE airport again

The security area is a mess. They supposedly have upgraded to new scanners and there is no need to take out your liquids. The results is that the majority of bags get pulled on the side and they have to check them one by one by hand. What was the point of the new scanners??? Is this your idea of a better service???

I would give no stars if I could
Absolutely furious .elderly people trying to negotiate your over complicated system.
Friend (80)waited in drop off / pick up we told him the plane had landed so didn’t anticipate the extremely look time to get out. We were then charged £60 to get out . Absolutely ridiculous do you know what percentage of a weeks pension that is.
In my opinion the whole delay was through airport inefficiency or perhaps a way of making more out of exhausted passengers

We did the boarding on easyjet flight to mxp at 15.10
We had to wait in a small area standing with not enough seats overcrowded without toilets or bar or anything like sheep or cows
