Important timetable changes from 4th April
From Sunday 4th April, important changes to the Flyer Service will be introduced.
The frequency of the bus service will increase from running every 15 minutes at peak to every 10 minutes from key locations including Bristol Airport, Temple Meads and the Bus Station. The route will change to suit the more efficient service with key hotels such as the new Radisson Blu hotel, the Bristol Hotel (formally Jury's Bristol) and the Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel all being served. The new route will cover The Grove, Prince Street and College Green. The service will continue to stop at Clifton Triangle but will no longer stop at Whiteladies Road or Blackboy Hill, however these Clifton destinations can be reached from the Clifton Triangle or College Green stops by connecting with the local First Buss service numbers 1, 54, 54a, 40, 40a and the 8 and 9 services.
The Bristol Airport Flyer is the only express link between Bristol Railway Station (Temple Meads), Bristol Bus Station, Clifton and Bristol Airport. The journey time to the City Centre is approximately 30 minutes, with services operating daily between 0230 and 0045*
* Please refer to timetable for the first Flyer service departing daily at each individual stop.
From Bristol Airport the service operates two alternating routes, the '330' linking Temple Meads, City Centre, Key Hotels and Clifton and the '331' which also serves Temple Meads before continuing onwards to the Bus Station (same routes operate in reverse).
Please note: The 330 service no longer stops at Parrys Lane, Wills Hall, Parrys Lane, Hiatt Baker or Stoke Hill, Church Avenue.Fares
