Car Hire Glasgow Airport
The Glasgow International airport, formerly known as the Glasgow Abbotsinch airport is located 7 miles (11 km) west of Glasgow, Scotland. The second busiest in the country, over 7 million passengers pass through the facility on an annual basis. Originally serving as a military airport in the Royal Air Force in the 1930s, the facility has undergone vast reconstruction in order to handle the flow of annual passengers. However, physical growth is hampered by the location of the facility, as the motorways and towns surround the airport on the north and south sides. There are currently over thirty airlines offering service out of Glasgow, with some of the destinations offered on a seasonal basis. It is important to check with individual carriers regarding the destination availability when booking flights.
Due to its location, the proximity of motorways allows for easy access via express bus, taxi, or private vehicle. If arriving by personal vehicle, there are plenty of options for parking on site, including long stay, short stay, and fast track parking. The latter offering an additional perk of access to the Fast Track priority security lane, perfect for when passengers are running short on time. All of the parking options are located near the airport terminal for convenience. Since the long term car park is located a little further away, there is a courtesy shuttle offering service from the lot to the airport terminal.
