    Infrastructure, Construction & Developments

    Speaking to a airport staff member recently, the Eastern extension or walkway is on schedule to be ready by end of summer 2020. If it is a mirror of the western walkway then there would be stands all along the walkway right up to and curving beyond the demolished OTB?

    Bristol Airport Parking

    Wait till people start to get their £100 fine for a 10 sec stop to let a friend out on the road in front of the terminal. Or a quick pick up by the zebra crossing. The van with a mounted camera circles that route all day. But some people get lucky and others dont. Wont be long before static...

    Bristol Airport is recruiting Firefighters to join its Fire & Rescue Service.

    The last batch did not fight a single fire or aircraft incident since they have been employed. 40 years with no action must be boring despite all the simulation exercises and mock rescues.

    Until now the road was policed by the uniformed A&S constabulary. The airport take over the role now. Can the driver not just say he wasbroken down. Waits a few minutes. Passenger jumps out due to impending flight. Driver then starts the car saying it was always his intention to park in the...

    That is a blow to the airport. Approx 1000 passengers a day i make it. As they are all international flights the guaranteed ancillary revenue for the airport in car parking and retail outlets Will take the hit. If the chartered flight business model is under threat should other companies be...

    Tenerife,Antalya and Dalaman to fly out today. If the crunch point is this weekend, this will be a good indication if the deal is getting closer. It would be catastrophic to fly these passengers out if the bosses know they have no chance of securing the extra funds.

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    Here is a thought. There is undeniably money to be made from flight cancellations under EU law. About euro 350 per flight. Is there a racket that no one has paid attention to. Airline staff are well placed to know which flights and which sector will suffer from crew issues. It is well known that...

    Bristol Airport switches to 100 per cent renewable electricity

    Orsted the supplier was a huge fossil fuel company. Its hived off most of it into other entities and has jumped on the renewable bandwagon. It does own huge off shore windfarms but given that it is such a major player in many European countries it cannot be all 100 percent renewable. In fact...
