DISCOVER A NEW WAY TO TRAVEL
GLASGOW AIRPORT IS CHANGING FROM 28 OCTOBER 2008
Regular travellers will notice a few changes to Glasgow Airport, as part of BAA Glasgow’s ongoing investment. From 28 October, all departing passengers will be routed through a new state of the art security search area. Once through security, passengers will be able to enjoy the full range of bars, shops, restaurants and lounges available in the main terminal.
Getting about
Finding your way around the new Glasgow Airport is easy. Just follow these simple steps...
Check-in
Check-in desks are located in the main terminal (desks 1-39) and in T2 (desks 40-64). Flight information screens will let you know where you need to check-in for your flight.
Departing passengers
Once you have checked-in, follow the signs for 'departures' and make your way to security search, located on the first floor. There is now one central search area for all departing passengers.
Fast, efficient and safe
Your security is BAA’s number one priority. So Glasgow Airport has invested in new
technology, and a purpose built security search area, to keep passengers safely on the move.
Follow these simple steps and you'll be on your way in no time.
§ Pack any liquids in your hold luggage, if you can
§ If you must carry liquids, pack containers no more than 100mls in a clear, re-sealable plastic bag
§ Retain your boarding card at all times - you will be required to present this at security, and before you board your flight
§ Remove any coats and jackets and place them in a tray, along with any liquids
§ Do not carry any sharp items
Important note for travellers: As a result of BAA’s investment in new technology, passengers are not required to remove laptops from their hand luggage. Ask your airline how many bags you can carry on board your aircraft. Different rules apply.
