Bristol Airport: Several flights diverted away from city as storms hit region

Several flights were diverted away from Bristol Airport as thunderstorms enveloped the region on Tuesday (August 16). The airport confirmed that three arriving flights were redirected to other airports due to poor weather conditions for landing in Bristol.

Two Ryanair flights from Tenerife and Lanzarote - flight numbers FR 4754 and FR 4756 respectively - were diverted to Birmingham Airport. A KLM flight arriving from Amsterdam, flight number KL 1053, was redirected to Cardiff Airport.

Outbound flights leaving Bristol Airport so far remain unaffected by the weather conditions. Passengers have been advised to speak to their airline for updates and look at the departures and arrival boards on its website.
