Glasgow Airport, Airport of the Year for the Second Consecutive Year
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Glasgow Airport on being named Airport of the Year at the Scottish Transport Awards for the second year in a row, after being shortlisted alongside Aberdeen International, which is also part of AGS Airports Ltd group, and Inverness; acknowledges the challenges 2020 has brought for the transport sector and recognises the incredible efforts and achievements of everyone working at the airport, despite the current climate; understands that, in addition to being Scotland’s largest charter hub, Glasgow serves more Scottish destinations than any other airport and is a key component of Scotland’s transport infrastructure, supporting over 30,000 jobs across the country and generating £1.44 billion (GVA) annually, and praises everyone involved in achieving this win and continuing to deliver high levels of customer service during what has been an incredibly challenging year.
