BRS Bristol

How deep the BRS board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from BRS. This reads the same 116 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 61of the 116 destinations are flown by one airline
• 77destinations run less than once a day
• 6destinations have four or more departures a day
• 69%of the destinations name easyJet, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at BRS

20 airlines appear on the BRS board and they do not hold it evenly. easyJet is on 80 of the 116 destinations, 69 per cent of them, and on 31 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 106.5 of the 130.9 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Jet2 on 38 destinations. 12 of the 20 airlines at BRS appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 80 of the 116 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on a BRS sector is usually another easyJet aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at BRS than the destination count does.

How much of the BRS board is daily

Of the 116 destinations, 39 are flown at least once a day and 77 are not, 14 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the BRS board is flown 5 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: BRS to Southampton (SOU) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 30.1 of the 130.9 departures a day, 23 per cent of the whole board. With 66.4 per cent of the 116 destinations running less than daily, this is a board that rewards booking the outbound before the collection is confirmed rather than after.

The ten destinations out of BRS where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 42 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from BRS

The desk holds the return direction for 71 of the 116 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On seven of them the return into BRS runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Burgas (BOJ) at 0.43 out a day against 0.14 back, Sharm el Sheikh (SSH) at 0.78 out a day against 0.29 back and Liverpool (LPL) at 0.29 out a day against 0.14 back.

It runs the other way as well: Alicante (ALC) files 5.9 a day back into BRS against 4.3 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at BRS

BRS keeps Europe/London time, three hours behind Dubai in summer and four hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 06:00 at BRS, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for six hours. A customs question raised in the last three hours of the Dubai afternoon reaches nobody at BRS until the next morning, which is the practical limit on a same day instruction here.

The night at BRS

7 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Amsterdam (AMS) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from BRS that lands inside it leaves around 20:44, on a modelled block of 1h 16m. Into Paris (CDG) the door shuts at 00:00 local, so the last departure from BRS that lands inside it leaves around 21:50, on a modelled block of 1h 10m. Into Berlin (BER) the door shuts at 22:00 local, so the last departure from BRS that lands inside it leaves around 19:04, on a modelled block of 1h 56m. Those three departure times out of BRS are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where BRS turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the United Kingdom country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

The site publishes 48 airport pair pages that start or end at BRS, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Bristol to Dublin (DUB), Bristol to Palma De Mallorca (PMI) and Bristol to Málaga (AGP).

Eleven courier postings name BRS as the airport a courier here flies from: Bristol, Cardiff and Swansea.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with BRS already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 116 destinations above.
