For people planning on travelling to the capital from Bristol, flying would be the very last transport option most would think of using. Particularly in the current climate emergency, travelling by air has become something many of us avoid if there are other more sustainable options, such as travelling by train.
However for many who want to live more sustainably, cost can sometimes be a barrier, especially as rail fares continue to soar. In fact it turns out that a plane ticket between Bristol and London is actually four times cheaper than train fare between the capital and the South West.
The new discovery means that, based on prices for next week (March 1), it would cost £23 to fly to Bristol. In comparison, a train ticket to Bristol, also based on prices from March 1, would set you back an average of £114, reports My London.
