    My niece stayed at a hotel that let her park her car until she came back.
    Sure she said the overnight stay was £75 and the 2 week parking was free.
    Not sure of the hotel though.

    I , myself have booked the holiday inn in Birmingham for the night before our flight and it is costing my £110 for a family room and breakfast for 4 with 15 nights parking in the hotel.

    No trying to be a smart arse, but maybe you should say where you're traveling from?

    No problem, I actually know a few Central Cabs boys so might see if I can get a favorable rate with them.

    You should look into getting a quote from some of the Glasgow taxi companies. Try Network, key cars and hampden taxis. Think they will work out cheaper than an Edinburgh based taxi.

    I'm away on Saturday. We just book into one off the car parks in Paisley that shuttle you there and back.

    Think we paid £50
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Can't do that as my company car will be left in Edinburgh when I go on holiday.

    You can buy a through ticket to Gla Airport on board the Citylink 900 service, switching to the Glasgow Airport Shuttle Bus (service 500) at Buchanan St Station. Not sure what the price is.

    We always go from Newcastle as you save a fortune £60 to park the car for a fortnight and you can walk to the terminal.

    No worries it's no hassle especially going ...
    I would use park and ride then lots of great deals

    Another regular at NCL. If the flight times are conducive we get the train down (I've got free passes), Metro right in to station and away. If it's an early flight or late return we book the Premier Inn, less than 5 minutes walk away from the terminal.
    In 2010 we saved £1500 for a family of 3 by flying from Newcastle rather than Glasgow!

    Not sure if it helps but getting yourself to Edinburgh airport than the bus to Glasgow airport is apparently pretty easy.

    I fly from Newcastle a week on Friday. The flights were over £200 pp less than Edinburgh. £600 saving for the 3 of us. It only takes a couple of hours to drive down there.

    Car hire

    Perhaps one way car hire would be cheaper. I do this from Edinburgh to Glasgow Airport with Hertz - sometimes £34 one way.

    Collect from East London Street, leave at Gla airport etc ditto return
