About Official Valet Parking
Official Valet Parking at Glasgow runs from a new Valet Hub, opened in December 2025. You drive through a photo booth, check in at a kiosk, drop your keys and walk to the terminal.
Glasgow Airport's Valet Hub opened on 3 December 2025, on the site of the former multi-storey car park. You drive through a picture booth, where cameras photograph your car, and pull into a Valet Drop-Off Lane. The airport's parking pages place the drop-off at Car Park 1.
Inside the Valet Cabin you check in at a self-service kiosk and post your keys in the Key Drop Box opposite. Keep your collection receipt. The terminal is a two to three-minute walk away under a dedicated walkway, and staff park your car in a secure compound with CCTV, patrols and 24/7 security.
On return, your car waits in the return bays. You collect your keys from a self-service locker using your receipt. On our sample dates the official valet costs less than parking yourself in the Terminal Multi-Storey, which is unusual.
Location and getting there
Glasgow Airport sits beside the M8 at Junction 28, about seven miles west of the city centre. Follow the Valet signs as you approach the terminal. The hub has its own entrances from the main road.
The check-in itself takes a few minutes, so allow for it on top of the walk.

Valet against parking yourself
Valet saves you the walk from a car park and hands the parking to staff. On our sample dates it also costs less than the Terminal Multi-Storey over eight days. The trade-off is the key handover and the seven-day minimum. For a shorter trip, Mid Stay or the multi-storey are the options.
