Terminal Information – Departing

Bristol Airport has one terminal. The departure lounge has a good range of places to grab a bite to eat or enjoy a pre-holiday tipple. Burger King and Starbucks are great for a quick snack, while The Cabin and Dexters both offer something a little more substantial. The Canary Islands are not part of the EU, so take advantage of duty-free shopping at World Duty Free, Dixons Travel and JD Sports. If you need some light reading for the beach you can pop into WHSmith, or if you want to stock up on sunscreen you'll find everything you need in Superdrug. For a more relaxing pre-flight experience you can check into one of the airport's two lounges: Aspire (prices start from £19.99*) and Aspire Plus (prices from £29.99*). The extra tenner grants you an adults only space with a hot-food buffet and access to premium drinks such as malt whisky and prosecco.
