Why would they charge £50 more than flights from Glasgow on the same dates? Personally I'd prefer to fly from Prestwick (not that I have anything against Glasgow airport) because I live only a few minutes away. However, if I could get a flight on the same day for £50 cheaper then I'm going to fly from Glasgow.
Since I have last flown from Prestwick I believe the departure lounge has been extended. Does anyone have any photos of the extended departure lounge? Is the seating any better? The last time I was there the rows of seats were so close together that it was very difficult to move and the seats were rather tatty. Is there any change in the retail outlets?
