Bristol Airport's 'unacceptable' security queues almost caused woman to miss flight for final IVF treatment

A woman set to receive her final IVF treatment abroad almost missed her Faro flight at Bristol Airport due to its lengthy security queues this morning (Monday, October 21). This comes after Zubi Kiran shared a post on her Twitter page to warn others of the lengthy security queues.

She first addressed the airport by asking “what's going on with security?” before stating she had been queuing since 4.45 am. Her concerned partner told Bristol Live that “It was imperative she make the flight” as they are “going through the last stages of IVF and she had an appointment at 3 pm in Faro”.

They explained that Ms Kiran was able to drop her luggage off with “ease” but found herself waiting more than two hours in security queues when her flight to Faro was scheduled for 6.50 am. To make matters worse, the "check-in staff told her that there would be no gate announcement for her flight and to keep an eye on the boards".
