FACILITIES

Glasgow Airport Parking
 
Glasgow Airport parking caters extensively for all passengers’ long, medium and short-term parking needs. Competitive rates are charged hourly for short-term parking and daily at the medium and long term parking facilities, all of which offer a high standard of security. All of the Glasgow Airport parking facilities are located in close proximity to the airport terminal building and are regularly serviced by complimentary shuttle buses.

While booking is not necessary for Glasgow Airport parking, online reservations can yield more economical rates, especially for longer stays. There are designated Glasgow Airport parking bays for disabled passengers situated immediately outside the terminal building.
 
Entertainment
 
Patrons can take advantage of a wide variety of dining and shopping options within the terminal building beyond the Glasgow Airport parking facilities. There are a great number of bars, restaurants and coffee shops where a good meal and a relaxing drink or two can be enjoyed prior to departure. Whatever your tastes or budget, there are options to suit every palate, from light lunches and great coffee to full dinners and invigorating breakfasts. From the moment you make your stop at Glasgow Airport parking to the time of your flight departure, you will enjoy convenience and quality entertainment at the airport.
 
Internal transport
 
The Glasgow Airport parking facilities are incredibly well manned by shuttle buses that make transfers between the Glasgow Airport parking facilities (both long and short term) and the airport terminal building every few minutes. There are also comprehensive transport facilities and assistance for disabled passengers within the terminal building itself, while a complex network of elevators, escalators and auto-walks ensures passengers complete ease of access and navigation of the airport’s facilities. Buses, taxis and coaches are readily available from the Glasgow airport parking facilities, should passengers need to get to another part of the airport grounds in a hurry.
 
Departure lounges
 
Glasgow Airport offers two large lounge areas to its patrons; the Skylounge and the Servisair Executive Lounge. The first features two separate areas of relaxation, the Business Wing and the Holiday Wing.
