On the topic of the new Western Walkway I discovered this on the Bristol Airport Wikipedia article. "On 28 May, an £8M project finalised with the opening of a 450 metres (1,480 ft) walkway, which connects the terminal building to eight new pre-boarding zones, each with its own jetway."
Can someone tell me if this is true, or have any photos of the new walkway as I didn't think that each boarding gate had an airbridge/jetbridge/jetway straight to the aircraft, I was led to believe that passengers would walk out to the aircraft via doors onto the apron and board using steps.
I'm afraid that is defiantly incorrect, as the article states- they are preboarding zones, but they
don't have airbridges.
If you don't mind the hopeless plug, click
here for one of my videos from last week- shows the outside of the walkway.
