Hi all, we're flying from Glasgow early tomorrow morning, didn't want to drive and park there as we fly back to Newcastle on Sunday. But looks like only options now is to park and try get someone to pick it up later in the day, or just park there until Sunday and pick it when back from Newcastle. Where would be the best place to park? Or any other suggestions? Cheers

Airpark is who I use when I park for a while

Or here

But if going from Glasgow and back to Newcastle that may not be best idea where are you from?

Cheapest option is to park around here and get the bus to the airport:

Get a taxi, dearer but will save you (or others) a whole lot of hassle getting your car back home!
Make sure the meter is off and agree a price up front......

There's now an early bus from Edinburgh Airport to Glasgow then on to Glasgow Airport that may work out cheaper depending on your flight time and how easily you can get to Edinburgh airport

Thanks everyone for the help. I'm still quite new to the area so don't know much that's about. Cheers

This service only goes to Glasgow. Change needed at Buchanan Bus Station to the airport. It's designed to service Edinburgh Airport, so just watch out for the times to connect to Glasgow Airport on the different service if you use this option.

Sorted now. Got a lift sorted. Train sorted back from Newcastle on Sunday. Because we're travelling on tight time restrictions we have that was the only way to get away together. Still, its better than getting into Newcastle on Monday at 2AM and then going to work. Cheers for all help and advice though. While on here,is anybody local to the Bathgate area?
