Travel Advisory – M8 Roadworks

Major roadworks are taking place on the M8 motorway until May 2026, which may cause delays for passengers travelling to Glasgow Airport.

We strongly advise all passengers to allow extra time for their journey to ensure you arrive at the airport in good time.

Changes to Cabin Baggage Security Requirements

Please note that due to evolving safety and regulatory requirements for cabin baggage, certain items previously permitted may no longer be allowed into the airport security restricted area or onboard an aircraft. Airport security staff will not let anything through a security checkpoint that they consider dangerous or for which they are unable to resolve potential concerns - even if it has previously been allowed in hand luggage.

Arrangements may vary between airports and will include security officer assessments on the day. Passengers should check before travelling for advance advice given by airports from, and through, which you may travel.

North Hanover Street Roadworks

Major roadworks on North Hanover Street, part of Glasgow’s ‘Avenues’ project, will see lane restrictions and temporary lights installed from Monday 26th May 2025 for at least 18 months, causing significant disruption to bus services accessing Buchanan Bus Station. Passengers are advised to plan ahead and allow extra travel time.
