Bristol
Bristol Airport serves the whole of the West Country north of Exeter: Bristol, Bath, Somerset and north Wiltshire. It is the obvious departure point for the South West and saves the drive to London.
Private jet hire from Bristol (BRS / EGGD) avoids a two-hour drive east for most people in the South West. The airport sits on high ground south-west of the city on the A38, which puts Bath, the Mendips and north Somerset within easy reach.
Bristol trips are mostly European — the Balearics, southern Spain and Portugal, the South of France and the Alps — with Jersey and the Channel Islands a popular short hop. The category table below shows how much the aircraft choice changes the cost.

Getting to the airport
The airport is on the A38 south-west of Bristol rather than on a motorway, so allow for the approach roads at busy times. Bath is reached via the A4 or the M4. Your quotation confirms the handling arrangements.
Alternative airports
Cardiff (CWL / EGFF) — across the Severn; often better for South Wales.
Exeter (EXT / EGTE) — for Devon and the far South West.
Gloucestershire (Staverton) (GLO / EGBJ) — for Cheltenham and the northern Cotswolds, where the aircraft suits the airport.
Bournemouth (BOH / EGHH) — for Dorset and the south coast.
Planning considerations
Bristol is a commercial airport with a single runway; departure times are agreed with the airport and handling agent at booking.

Can I fly from Bristol to Jersey by private jet?
Yes. It is one of the shortest international-style sectors from the South West, and a light jet or turboprop often makes most sense for it.
