Bristol Airport is preparing for the busiest ever summer holiday getaway with over 1.5 million passengers planning to travel through the Airport during the holiday period.
Over 1.5 million customers are expected to travel through the Airport over the summer holiday period, with up to 37,000 customers flying on some days.
Sun destinations and city trips are due to be the most popular choices during this Summer holiday period. The top sun destinations for customers will include Palma de Mallorca, Alicante and Málaga. The top city trips include Dublin, Edinburgh and Amsterdam. This year has been a hugely busy first six months for Bristol Airport with the airport welcoming Aegean Airlines, Sun Express and Corendon Airlines. In March, the airport saw the return of the highly-anticipated Bristol to Cork service with Aer Lingus.
The airport will also be welcoming athletes who will be competing in the UIPM Pentathlon and Laser Run World Championships 2023 in Bath during August.
Bristol Airport recommends all passengers to prepare and plan ahead. This includes:
Check-in/bag drop:
