Options in 1 hour · All-in prices · Dedicated manager
Vector Jet arranges private jet charter to and from Bristol Airport (BRS) and other airports in the South West — for business trips, Glastonbury, the Badminton Horse Trials, the Cheltenham Festival, weekends in Bath and the Cotswolds, and flights with pets. Send us your route, date and number of passengers, and within an hour you receive 2–3 aircraft options with an all-inclusive price. Our charter managers speak English, German, French and Spanish.
Private flights at Bristol Airport use the Centreline terminal on the south side of the airfield, with its own lounges, security, customs and passport control, so you never pass through the main terminal. The drive to the city centre takes about 25–30 minutes, and to Bath about 40 minutes.
Indicative one-way prices for the whole aircraft, in GBP. Your final quote depends on your dates, aircraft availability and repositioning — the cost of flying the aircraft empty to Bristol if it is based elsewhere. Send us your trip details and we will confirm the exact price.

How to Book a Private Jet from Bristol
Charter Managers
Our charter managers speak English, German, French and Spanish — ask for your preferred language when you request a quote.
Bristol Airport is the main airport for private flights in the South West of England. It sits on the edge of the Mendip Hills, 12 km south of the city, and is the closest airport to Bath, Glastonbury and much of Somerset.
Private terminal. Private jet passengers use Centreline, the business aviation terminal on the south side of the airfield. It is open 24 hours a day, with two passenger lounges, its own security screening and on-site customs and passport control, so you can arrive 20 minutes before departure and never pass through the main terminal.
Runway and long-haul flights. The single runway is 2,011 m (6,598 ft) long — ample for light, midsize and super midsize jets. For a heavy jet on a long-haul flight, such as Dubai or New York, it can limit the take-off weight, so the aircraft may depart with less fuel and stop on the way, or we may suggest Cardiff, 50 minutes away, which has a longer runway.
Slots and night flights. Between 23:30 and 06:00 flights operate under a night quota (a cap on the number and noise of night flights), and the noisiest aircraft cannot use the airport at night. We request your slot together with the booking, so a late departure after an event needs to be planned in advance.
| Codes | IATA: BRS · ICAO: EGGD |
|---|---|
| Night flights | 23:30–06:00 under night quota — request in advance |
| Runway | 1 runway, 2,011 m (6,598 ft) |
| Customs & border control | On site, in the private terminal |
| Private terminal | Centreline · open 24 hours |
| Slots | Arranged by Vector Jet with your booking |
| Distance to city centre | 12 km (8 miles) |
| Ashton Gate | ≈ 20 min by car |
|---|---|
| City centre (Harbourside, Clifton) | ≈ 25–30 min |
| Bath | ≈ 40 min |
| Glastonbury (Worthy Farm) | ≈ 45 min · by helicopter ≈ 12 min |
| Badminton | ≈ 50 min |
| Cardiff | ≈ 1 h |
| Cheltenham Racecourse | ≈ 1 h 10 min |
Bristol Airport suits most private flights, but for some events and longer flights another airfield is a better fit — or a helicopter saves the drive altogether.
| Airport | Distance from Bristol | Best for | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cotswold Airport (Kemble) GBA · EGBP | 44 km | The Cotswolds, Badminton and polo at Tetbury | Light and midsize jets; heavy jets with restrictions; prior permission required |
| Cardiff CWL · EGFF | 53 km | Cardiff, South Wales and long-haul flights | Runway 2,354 m — an option for heavy jets on long-haul routes |
| Gloucestershire (Staverton) GLO · EGBJ | 57 km | The Cheltenham Festival | Light and midsize jets; book early for Festival week in March |
| Exeter EXT · EGTE | 99 km | Devon and the South West coast | Business aviation handling |
Private Jets for Festivals, Racing and Rugby
The West Country hosts some of Britain’s best-known summer events, and Bristol Airport is the closest airport to most of them.
Glastonbury Festival. At the end of June, Bristol Airport is the nearest airport to Worthy Farm, about 27 km away. Roads around the site are notoriously slow during the festival, so many guests land at Bristol and complete the journey by helicopter in about 12 minutes. Aircraft, parking and helicopters are in short supply that week, so book early.
Badminton Horse Trials and polo. Badminton in May and the summer polo season at Beaufort near Tetbury are within an hour of the airport; Cotswold Airport at Kemble is closer for light jets.
The Cheltenham Festival. Four days of jump racing in March. Gloucestershire Airport is about ten minutes from the racecourse; from Bristol Airport the drive takes about 1 hour 10 minutes.
Balloon Fiesta and rugby. The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta fills the skies over Ashton Court every August, and Bath Rugby at the Rec and Bristol Bears at Ashton Gate draw crowds through the winter.
Same-day return. For a race day, a match or a meeting, a same-day return is often better value than two one-way flights, because the aircraft waits for you instead of flying back empty.
