GLASGOW (International), Scotland

"there's still a strange sense of community where, even if we are all suspicious of each other and are sure someone is going to steal all our money, we're all sleeping on the same benches and will all wake up with the exact same pain in our backs as we stand in the check in line." (Nadine)
"there are always Police and Security staff patrolling the area who are happy to permit travellers using the airport to spend the night." (?)

What you can look forward to:


WTF is this?

  • hard seats without armrests
  • according to an employee (in Feb 06) alarms are test every Wednesday and Thursday around midnight
  • according the sleepers, the alarm testing would go all night
  • internet kiosks
  • announcements all night

"I was having a bad day, and I wanted to just rest for a wee while. I knew of the lounge sofa things. I forgot how comfortable these were!
I lay there for a few hours watching the clouds, and spoke to some cute lass also. I did fall asleep and got a nice kip.
It will get quieter at night time, but be aware of the clanking lift doors, which I really wanted to break. Everyone just went their way and I was left to my own peace, and it was a peaceful area (bar the lift doors).
Space to sprawl out, and there are other options also, like big leather massage chairs (no need to pay just to sit)."
