Glasgow skyhub to open in October
Thu, 17 Jul, 2008
A £31 million skyhub extension is set to open at Glasgow Airport in October.
The new development will span two storeys and promises to feature a high-tech security screening system with ten new x-ray machines.
It is hoped that the system will allow travellers to be screened faster without compromising on safety.
In addition to this, flyers using the new facility will find a greater variety of shops and bars, including a Starbucks and Hugo Boss store.
Gordon Dewar, the airport's managing director, commented: "At a cost of £31 million, skyhub is a significant investment by BAA Glasgow in customer service and security."
He went on to say that it signals the management's commitment to putting passengers first at Glasgow Airport.
Those flying in or out of Glasgow Airport may wish to park their cars in the long-stay car park which has a transfer to the terminal every five to ten minutes and is enclosed by security fencing.
