The facility will be the fourth to be based in Glasgow - more than any other Scottish airport - with the number of people looking to enjoy access on the rise.

Emirates and British Airways both have their own separate facilities, while the airport has operated its own UpperDeck lounge for a number of years.

The new facility, which will create 25 jobs, will operate between 5am and 9pm daily.

Glasgow Airport managing director Mark Johnston said: “We’re very excited about the introduction of the Lomond Lounge later this summer and the superior customer experience it will deliver for our passengers.

“While the UpperDeck continues to be extremely popular with our business and leisure passengers, demand for lounge access continues to rise as more and more people look to start their travels in style.

“The potential for the site of the new Lomond Lounge was huge given its prime location in the airport’s departures area and the fantastic views it offers of both the airfield and the stunning backdrop of the Campsie Fells.
