Hello, I'm flying down to Bristol from Newcastle on the 19th Feb, was just wondering if anyone could supply me with information on how to get to various locations from the terminal, and reccomend which one is best.
All help would be greatly appreciated.

Leave arrivals and turn right, go out of the airport to the A38. Then head right and you then pass under the 27 runway approach. Keep going and you will see the main apron behind you. Try Gary Morris's Bristol Int Enthusiasts site www.eggd.co.uk (http://www.eggd.co.uk) for more info.

I can't believe the guy who runs the spotters' website is encouraging other 'enthusiasts' to stand at a crash gate while spotting!
With a lack of parking round there, it leads to people leaving their cars in front of these gates and quite often, wandering off. I would like to think that spotters weren't stupid enough to park there, but everyday I go to work, I see that they are.
Still, if you can afford a car strong enough that it can withstand a collision with a Fire vehicle, then good luck to you.
