Does anybody know how to get cheaper Airport parking at Bristol. 37 miles in a Taxis is over £250 return. I have seen some local drive parking at £68 but nothing to judge it against. Any help on subject is welcome.

    We usually use the Silver Zone carpark - costs around £70 a week via Holiday Extras.  Alternatively, I go by train and use the Airport Flyer from Temple Meads.

    Thank you for this, being quoted £124 for Silver and £154 for Multi, this is using BRS Code. I would not mind, but only 6 days.

    We use Oakwood Parking, they're less than 2 minute drive from the airport. Leave the car there & they take you to the terminal & pick you up. Cheaper than airport everytime.

    There is a bus from Weston super Mare and Congresbury, plenty of cheap/free street parking nearby. Buses run hourly 24hrs a day

    Have used them for over 10 years, at least once a year, & never had any issues.
  • I would highly recommend www.Cornishtravel.net I used these guys last month. New parking company just starting up close to junction 21 M5. Car was kept undercover and we took our keys with us. Reasonable price. Transfers were waiting for us when we arrived and when we got back to Bristol airport! 
  • I have also used cornish travel and can highly recommend this company, the price is what I liked and also friendly and got me to the airport in good time bonus was I kept my keys .

    Hmmmm 2 new users who both used their first post to recommend the same company? 

    Also looking at the webpage, initial picture of location looks like a very new modern premises....actual picture looks like a barn! 
  • I'm sorry for making my recommendation! Just trying to help people out but suggesting my experience I have had recently. I don't normally leave comments or reviews but after the struggle I had choosing my airport parking seems like the airport are charging more money for parking than they did for my flights! Also the other car parking companies in the area which I looked at all had bad reviews or just put in a field somewhere not knowing what could happen to my car.
