Glasgow Airport Airspace Modernisation Consultation

Closes 25 Jan 2026

Opened 20 Oct 2025

Overview

Glasgow Airport is consulting on an Airspace Change Proposal to modernise its arrival and departure routes and the surrounding airspace to meet the UK Government's Airspace Modernisation Strategy. 

Glasgow Airport is proposing to make changes to the arrival and departure routes to introduce modern Performance Based Navigation (PBN) technology. We are also proposing to make changes to the Controlled Airspace (CAS) within the vicinity of Glasgow Airport.
