Bristol Airport urges passengers not to turn up 'too early' despite long queues

Passengers travelling from Bristol Airport have been asked not to turn up too early after queues snaking out of the building were pictured on Thursday morning. There were waits of around 80 minutes to get through security but officials at the airport later asked people to turn up at the time advised by the airline they are flying with.

This is usually around two hours before the time of your flight but the advice is to check before you travel. After the pictures of queues were shared on social media on Thursday morning and reports that there were similar queues on Wednesday airport bosses issued a statement.

There were around 30 flights that departed within a two-hour period at the airport on Thursday morning. No flight delays were reported.
