Car rental location Bristol Airport

Location information for Bristol Airport

None of southwest England's airports can rival the scale of Bristol Airport, the ninth-biggest in the entire United Kingdom. In 2011, this West Country airport greeted nearly six million passengers. The busiest of Bristol Airport's 50 direct destinations are Dublin, Amsterdam, Edinburgh, and the Spanish resorts of Alicante, Malaga and Palma de Mallorca.

Airport Facilities

Bristol Airport's Departures area stands on the first floor of the single airport terminal, while the ground floor contains the Arrivals area. Several restaurants, shops, Travelex currency exchanges and ATMs stand on either side of security in both the international and domestic sections of the terminal. The airport media centre contains a well stocked conference centre.

Car Hire Bristol Airport

Avis, National, Hertz and Europcar all offer car rental in Bristol Airport. Though all four of these reputable international chains accept on the spot bookings, advance reservations are still recommended to give motorists wider vehicle selections and peace of mind. The A38 is the main thoroughfare between Bristol and the airport eight kilometres to the north.

Driving

Apart from many confusing one-way streets and heavy traffic during weekends and rush hours, driving in Bristol is fairly straightforward. Car parks and street parking are both fairly easy to find, but park and ride services have also become very popular. It's always recommended to compare car hire deals online and make early bookings to lock down the lowest prices.

Things To See and Do

Car hire in Bristol Airport can make a day trip to the ancient city of Bath and its 2,000-year old ancient Roman baths a breeze. Even more history lies across the Severn Bridge in Cardiff, the capital of Wales. The grand pier of the nearby seaside community of Weston-super-Mare survived two fires and has been fully rebuilt, as has Weston's Pier, now one of Great Britain's largest indoor theme parks.

Best Time To Visit

Bristol experiences the same wet and unpredictable weather as many other English cities. Winter is Bristol's coldest and wettest season, but temperatures are higher and humidity is lower during the autumn. Spring is the season when colourful daffodils bloom in Bristol's green spaces. However, even during Bristol's warmest months between May and September, rain is common so no visitor should come without rain gear. Bristol's annual daytime average temperature is a pleasant 16°C.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is 121CarHire.com the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
