Bristol Airport is preparing for the busiest ever summer holiday getaway with over 1.5 million passengers planning to travel through the Airport over the holiday period (22 July – 3 September).

The August Bank Holiday is expected to be the busiest period over the summer, with customers and families going on a well-deserved holiday, city break or to meet up with friends and relatives.

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.

Sunny destinations and city trips are due to be the most popular choices during the summer holiday period. The top destinations for customers will include Palma de Mallorca, Alicante and Málaga. The top city trips include Dublin, Edinburgh and Amsterdam. This year has seen an extremely busy first six months for Bristol Airport, which has welcomed Aegean Airlines, Sun Express and Corendon Airlines. In March, the airport also 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 this August.
