GLA began in 1932, and the RAF used it to house its Auxiliary Air Force. It was home to a torpedo training unit in 1940 and was a naval base in 1943. The navy left in 1963, but by this time, Glasgow realized it needed an airport for civilian use. In the 1990s, GLA was the first U.K. airport to screen all of the baggage that went through the doors due to the Lockerbie bombing. The RAF continues to use this airport as a base.

Short- and long-term parking is available, as well as valet parking. One lot is closest to the terminal, and the others are either a short walk or serviced by shuttle buses. Ground transportation includes buses, trains and taxis. There is bicycle parking at the lots.

Glasgow Airport Reviews

★★★★★
Glasgow airport is a great choice for travelers very low ques lots of shops gate areas are well sign posted,also 3peirs easyjet and loganair domestic,domestic for flybe and ba and international tho ryanair depart from gate51 no matter of destination. Always my first choice
- Alasdair Adam

★☆☆☆☆
Glasgow Airport is terrible, it needs done up, more shops and nicer staff. I didn't get free WiFi and you are forced to walk through duty-free. The toilets were a mess and smelt. There wasn't enough seats after security and the wait was horrendous at security, waited in excess of 30 minutes. When we asked why we got no answer, just said they would try their best, they clearly were not.
- Goofy99

★★☆☆☆
It's an OK little airport but certainly lacking against the bigger ones like Changi. The facilities are very few as are the food and shopping. Saving grace is the staff are friendly most of the time which is something lacking in other UK airports. Overall a solid 2 star airport
- Chris McCulloch

★★★★☆
GLA is undergoing constant improvement as is always getting better. Airport looks modern both inside and out, with the exception of some gates on the central and east peirs which look a little outdated. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Security is always flawless and even at peak times is very quick. Shops and restaurants are good but there are many more being added. Departures is spacious and offers good views over the aprons. WiFi is lacking behind other UK airports with only 30 minutes free. Overall, a very efficient airport with excellent connectivity and ever-expanding route network.
- scottishflyer

★★★★☆
Very good public transport links to the city centre. Efficient security and check in queues very quick. Good access to WIFI with 1 hour for free. Lots of shops and eating outlets available. Very good airport would definitely recommend!
- Jordan Barr

★★★★★
Glasgow airport could not of been flayed for our trip . The staff were very polite and welcoming to us also clearly sign posted of gates Wifi could be improved but over all a great airport
- Alasdair Adam

★★★★★
Nice and cosy airport. Not too big but with a good variety of shops, restaurants and bars. Views over the platforms are perfect, there is something to see while waiting. Signing and routing is ok.
- Marco

★★★★★
Pleasant experience at Glasgow airport, plenty shops, bars and restaurants for being a smaller airport.
- Jenna McDonald

★★★★★
It's Glasgow domestic arrivals. What more needs to be said? Off the plane, collected baggage and into the car within 15 minutes.
- Robbie Mathieson

★★★★★
Great airport, fast check in and no queue at security every time I use it. Very clean and helpful staff. Lounge is great and free wifi is available throughout airport. Only improvement needed is the amount of shops/ restaurants as there is a lack of choice.
