Glasgow's BA flagship — a oneworld lounge with a Glenlivet whisky snug.

About this lounge

The British Airways Lounge at Glasgow Airport is the airline's flagship space at GLA, a 452 sq.m lounge opposite gate 15 that accommodates up to 150 guests. Designed by Graven Images, it leans hard into its Scottish setting: the standout feature is a Glenlivet Whisky Snug showcasing some of the finest single malt Scotch whiskies, and the decor incorporates lamps made from whisky decanters alongside materials from Scottish companies including the Bridge of Weir Leather Company and Bute Fabrics. It serves British Airways premium-cabin passengers and eligible oneworld Emerald and Sapphire status holders. For travellers flying BA out of Glasgow, it's the most polished and distinctive lounge in the terminal.
