Air Freight

Glasgow Prestwick International Airport is the premier freight airport for Scotland, Ireland and Northern England. Ideally located on the ‘Great Circle Route’ it is the first mainland airport between USA and Europe

 

Over the past 10 years Glasgow Prestwick's freight business has grown significantly - a testament to our first class facilities and ability to handle ‘main deck’ freighter traffic efficiently and professionally. 

 

In support of Scottish & UK industry Glasgow Prestwick has successfully developed  direct intercontinental freight services and currently handles 19 x 747 scheduled freighter services per week.

 

The origin transit points for these services - which play a significant role in substantially reducing import/export transit times - include New York, San Francisco, Guadalajara, Amsterdam, Paris and Luxembourg.

 

Numerous ad-hoc airfreight charter movements also utilise Glasgow Prestwick and a number of major forwarders are located at or close to the airport.
