The last thing you want to be doing when you are trying to catch a flight is be running to the airport when you find yourself arriving later than expected. Perhaps you have decided to catch the train to the airport which, in any other nation in Europe, would have meant you arrive on time. In Britain, however, the arrival and departure times of trains are much more seen as guidelines which mean your train could set off as much as 30 minutes late. Add into this the fact that there are always unforeseen events that happen during a journey – perhaps there are leaves on the track that need clearing or there is another train that takes an age to clear the line and you could see your chances of making the flight ebb slowly away. If you then arrive at the station, which is a good 15 minute walk from the airport, with only half an hour before your flight it can lead to a very nervous journey which will result in you arriving flustered and not at all ready for the trip.

The Bristol airport bus is, therefore, an essential tool. It ferries people to and from the airport free of charge and is a regular service, meaning that no matter what time you arrive, there will be little time to wait before it comes. You can just jump on the bus and relax, safe in the knowledge that you will arrive on time for the flight; invaluable peace of mind.
