Is Park & Ride the right choice at Glasgow?
Park & Ride wins on price for the great majority of trips. It is the sensible default whenever a short shuttle transfer is no problem and you would rather keep your keys and your budget intact.
Glasgow Airport runs six official options: the Terminal Multi-Storey directly opposite the terminal, Priority Parking on level 2 of car park two with covered access and priority security, Mid Stay on Sanderling Road (a 5-minute covered walk, pre-book only), Long Stay on Arran Avenue (under 8 minutes on foot or a free shuttle that runs 24 hours), Valet Parking for trips of 7 days or more, and Pick Up & Drop Off inside the terminal multi-storey. The airport lists its car parks as card payments only.
- The Long Stay shuttle runs 24 hours, and the car park is also under 8 minutes on foot from the terminal, so a late return is not a problem.
- The Inchinnan-side off-airport sites are usually the closest to the terminal in shuttle time.
- Express bus 500 is far cheaper than a taxi from central Glasgow if you're not driving.
