“Broke wrist when entering arrivals. No member of staff in evidence to help. On returning several days later I was body searched along with great granddaughter who is 5. I am over 80. Girl on security arrogant and less than courteous. Not what I remember from previous visits to airport.”
“The restaurants are dreadful. It’s the most horrendous walk to the gates, thought I’d walk to my destination in Spain.
Layout is dreadful, access to the aircraft does not even reach the terminal, you have to walk across the tarmac in the pouring rain.
Drop off drive through is extortionate.
Hate the place.”
“Less than 1 percent review.. tried to send message to Dave Lee but got stopped/ removed at every opportunity. FYI flights are going above my stables every minute. I know this because I live as the fly crows 4 minutes away by car. My elderly sheep are very traumatised. We look after our animals in the green belt on land we worked hard to purchase. One of my ponies has copd and medication costs me minimum £100’per month. Sat in Keynsham feeling sick at how many flights are poisoning my furry babies ( that I’ve rescued ) and equally wondering why I’m struggling to breath and antihistamines not working”
“Everything at Bristol Airport is slow, dirty, inefficient and disappointing. Travel used to be fun. Bristol Airport makes the whole experience a misery.”
“Appalling power-filled behaviour from security team (thugs!) when dealing with toddlers !!!!! Threatening behaviour and sour-faced security people with zero sensitivity on how to deal with families with young children!!! You DO NOT body search toddlers and children!!!!!!!!!!Shame on you”
“The ushering staff in passport control area upon arrivals have become extremely racist, rude and unhelpful over the last year. They pick out Brits who are non-white, and question loudly whether they are British. No non-british would queue in the most ginormous queue for fun and giggles! Need leadership team to address racist, unkind directions.
Ushering staff are not needed at all, if there are clear signs at the beginning of the zigzag lanes. Ushering staff only need to answer questions if help is asked for, not there to upset non-white Brits returning home.”

“This airport is the worst I have ever experienced, the staff are rude, shouting without explanation, what an awful start to a holiday!!
I’m sure that people from outside the UK are shocked when met with this behaviour!!
I will avoid this airport in the future!”
“Travelled through Bristol Airport 17th November 2023 and was met at security with a woman who shouted at everybody. This behaviour is atrocious and not good to witness. Bristol Airport get a grip we have travelled all over the world and this is the worst Airport!!”
“Absolutely disgusting. The staff in the fast track lane are some of the rudest, nastiest people I have ever experienced in my life. One male member of staff, not done being patronising towards me, was even hassling a family with young children who were after me in the queue.
As others have said, restaurants are poor quality and expensive, captive audience I guess - paid £14 for a meal that turned out to be inedible as it was lukewarm and seemed like it had been left out, not good for foods such as eggs and meat!
Had issue with my car parking as well, a member of staff took my key from me as I went to put it in the drop box in silver zone - muttered something about “not accepted” and gave it to someone else behind the desk, then walked off….? Tried to ask what had happened but was moved on. I just hope I get my car back when I return and can make a swift exit from this awful place!
If I could give 0 stars I absolutely would.”
“There is no customer service! The security staff are the rudest I have dealt with whilst travelling , they should send them for some training on customer service and if they can't be polite to the customer get rid and get staff who can be ! It's not what you want to deal with when your off on your holiday's and quiet frankly the customer shouldn't have to put up with it! And probably wouldn't but for the fact they want to get on their flights with out any complications.”
“Absolutely disgusting tried to order food at Frankie and Benny’s app didn’t work go to Burger King que for 30 mins to be told can’t order due to food orders not being done quick enough”
“Took 45 minutes from arrival till bags were loaded onto carousel. There were no other flights arriving and all other carousels were empty. Baggage desk person was useless and left desk after a while leaving no none for an aircraft full of people to seek help from. Last time I fly through Bristol airport.”
“Absolutely atrocious customer service here! It should be a pleasure but it’s a shocking experience from start to finish. Security is the worst area!!!!”
“Whs Smith is offering a meal deal for 4,99, sandwich, chips and a drink. But for us it impossible to do that because of the tourist trap layout. So Smith get your act together and do what you seem to promise. Make it happen fot 4,99. For me it is not the money but the principle!”
“Shambles in baggage claim. Have been here hour and a half and our luggage is still on the plane. We were told that luggage is taking at least 2 hours to be unloaded due to staff shortages. This has been the same excuse for the past 5 years. If the airport can’t handle the amount of passengers they should restrict the number of flights.
Toilets not very clean either. Won’t be using this airport again.”
