Glasgow Airport has welcomed the latest arrival to its expanding catering portfolio after Costa Coffee officially opened its doors today (13 March 2026).
Earlier this year, the airport announced a new partnership with One Retail, the retail specialist sector of Compass Group UK & Ireland, which has brought Costa to the airport.
The new Costa Coffee store will provide a modern and welcoming space, serving expertly handcrafted coffee and light bites, including delicious sandwiches and cakes. With convenience at its heart, the use of self-order kiosks allows for speedy service for those ready to board their flight. What’s more, customers can use click and collect through the Costa Coffee App to ensure their order is ready for them.
The new Costa Coffee is located just off the departures lounge, creating an additional offer for travellers, in particular frequent flyers on British Airways, Aer Lingus, Loganair, EasyJet and Ryanair, who are traditionally served by boarding gate areas in close proximity to the new store.
A first for One Retail, the Glasgow Airport opening marks the business’s expansion into airports – a significant step as travel becomes an increasingly important growth sector for the company.
Craig Norton, Head of Retail Development at Glasgow Airport, said: “I am delighted we are partnering with Compass- One Retail at a time of exciting Terminal growth plans for our Airport in Glasgow. The opening of a Costa Coffee will perfectly complement our other offers within the airport. We are delighted to celebrate the opening of this Costa Coffee store for our passengers before a busy summer schedule”
Glasgow Airport is part of AGS Airports which also comprises Aberdeen and Southampton airports. AGS was acquired by one of the world’s leading private airport operators, AviAlliance, in January 2025 who subsequently announced plans to invest £350 million in the future growth and decarbonisation of AGS over the course of the next five years.
The addition of Costa Coffee is part of that investment which will also include a comprehensive transformation of Glasgow Airport’s main terminal building delivering best in class operational and retail facilities for passengers. The programme will also direct investment into airfield infrastructure and energy efficiency initiatives. Not only will this significantly enhance the passenger experience, it will also ensure the airport is equipped to meet the growing and future demand from both customers and airline partners.
