Number of passenger flying to and from Bristol is increasing every day. In August, the airport received 6,80,000 passengers which shows increase of 1.42% on last year. Nearly 4 million have travelled through the Lulsgate Terminal. The number of international travellers during the summer gateway increased by 3.32%.

Passenger numbers at Bristol airport continued to increase throughout the year, except in April due to the Icelandic ash cloud which affected travel across Europe.

Raising numbers of passengers is not only good news for Bristol airport but for the entire Bristol city. Tourism, shoppers, hotels, apartments and travel modes are going to benefit from it. Part of the increase is inbound traffic (people going to Bath, Stonehenge) as well as customers going on holiday contributing to increase in passengers list.

The airport authorities now plan for further expansion where it will cover facilities to handle 10 million passengers a year.

So Bristol is showing remarkable growth. If you need to hire a van in Bristol get a Van hire in Bristol with Van Hire Guide.
