Airport Flyer

From 1 September the Flyer will operate at an eight-minute frequency in both directions at peak periods. Currently it operates at a 10-minute frequency at peak periods (roughly 0600-1900) and at lesser frequency during the later evening and through the night.

The route is also to be altered.

There will no longer be two routes (A1 and A2) but the new single route will call at Temple Meads from the airport and travel along the existing A1 route (Temple Way and Bond Street) to the country bus and coach station before continuing back to Temple Meads (and then back to the airport) via The Centre and Victoria Street.

This means that the Harbourside and the edge of Clifton around the Triangle will no longer be served.

Whilst at the airport recently I was impressed with the relatively new real-time digital bus departure display outside the terminal that includes the Flyer, the A4 service to Bath, the Greyhound 100 service to South Wales and the 121 local bus to Bristol bus station and Weston-super-Mare.
