Bristol Airport responds after backlash to multi-faith area

Feb 16,2020 6:03 am

An airport has defended its new multi-faith area after online criticism over its appearance.

Bristol Airport posted that it had opened the facility in one of its car parks earlier This Week .

The Post has attracted hundreds of comments with many questioning its location and others saying it resembles a Bus Stop or smoking shelter.

The Airport said it had consulted widely and listened to feedback before opening the multi-faith area.

It said the facility, located just off the Silver Zone Car Park roundabout, would provide people with a private space to reflect and pray while waiting to collect loved ones.

One response to The Post said it was not private as it was in a busy location and there was no door, and that it looked like a smoking shelter rather than a prayer space and would " no doubt" be used As One .

Others called it an " insult" and an inappropriate space for prayer, with criticisms including: " I thought it was a bus shelter" and " I've never seen something so ridiculous".

Some were more supportive, with one poster saying they loved the idea but that it needed to be in a " dry, secure, welcoming area".

The Airport posted a second message on Social Media following the criticism, saying there was also a multi-faith area in the Departure Lounge of the Terminal Building that could be used.
