Prestwick is great. Clean, spacious and like having your own private air terminal without the crowds. Mental to think this was the main international airport in Scotland until 1991.
You know why they moved the international flights - if a 747 crashed in Prestwick it might hit a golf course, a 747 crashing in Glasgow airport is just going to hit Paisley.
In 2005 on a flight from Los Angeles to London Heathrow, I saw Prestwick from the plane! Have been to Glasgow and the rest of Scotland several times, but always by rail.
My memories of flying into Prestwick were always pilots struggling with the crosswinds and bouncing along the runway until they finally managed to get both the main landing gear to make contact with the tarmac. Ryanair pilots seemed to have a particular problem with that manoeuvre but, all credit to them for doing their best.
An excellent video and Prestwick does look a lovely airport and the size must make it quick to get through from check in to security and boarding the flight.
It didn’t actually visit the town, his flight just landed at the airport as he was being transported from Germany to USA when he was serving in the US Army as a G I.
He peeped his baw heid oot door and never left flight ..Never set foot on prestwick or Scotland in his entire . Couldnt handle fame why he got into drugs and rest is history .
Prestwick is a great airport. The worst airport in Scotland without doubt is Edinburgh. It hasn’t got the facilities to cope with the number of flights. Passport control is a nightmare when you fly in there! Prestwick is bliss!❤️
Kevin, what gimbal do you use, it looks remarkably smooth? I'm starting to do property videos and am struggling to get a good mid range product. Thanks, John (from Prestwick)
Great stuff Kevin. Look forward to seeing more from Lanzarote. Kev the new Alan Wicker.👍. (I Remember going to an all night rave in Prestwick airport terminal in 1992 Called Eurodance)👌
Reminds me of Belfast city airport. Love it. I used to watch planes taking off from prestwick when a child. It’s a shame it’s so dead now eh. Mostly cargo flights?
Prestwick Airport is quaint, it's also great if you don't like the hassle of large airports. However, in summer you can get 2-3 full Ryanair flights leaving within a short time of each other. The narrow way through to security becomes a complete bottleneck and it can take as long as a major airport to get through to the rather dark and dingy departure lounge. I also don't particularly like the sloping passageway they make you queue in, just before getting out on to the tarmac to board the aircraft. Glasgow airport is a much more comfortable environment to wait for a flight, imo.
I dont think prestwick do flights to paris anymore. Been twice but had to leave from glasgow. Second time i left from Edinburgh. Which i will never do again as it was lot of travelling. Prestweck would be handier for me. Just get the 585 from irvine....we were in paris about 20 years ago too. We did leave from prestwick then. Just not getting any listng for flights from prestwick to paris. They clearly dont anymore for whatever reason.
Another little memory from me. My first flight into Glasgow, (I think 1994), was trying to work out what the pilot was announcing from the cockpit. As we flew around on final approach down below, (on the ground), was spelt out with massive planks of wood; “F%&k Off”. Happy Days. 😉
We absolutely love PDC, we were there in September. If you get chance, check out Flamingos for brunch. Food is freshly cooked and prepared and beautifully presented. It's near the Fariones. Have a fab time x
Instead of risking losing your money at the departure airport, why don't you get one of those free overseas payment cards (Chase, Monzo, Revolut, Starling, etc.)? I've had one for around 10 years, and I've only been to a handful of bars, cafes, or restaurants in mainland Spain, the Balearic Islands, and the Canary Islands where they don't accept cards. I visit the Czech Republic and Poland 7-8 times a year, and the majority of places prefer cards.
Would it not have been quicker going from Tenerife to Lanzarote instead of going all the way back to Glezga, to fly back oot..😂..I do understand that it was probably cheaper to get a flight from Prestwick....enjoy, looks g forward to the next informational video kev.
The narration reminds me of my first 'conversation' with a Scot. I think he owned a Fiat that didn't get 40 mpg. No idea what else he said in the 5 minute chat.
Hi Kevin We are judy and marks freinds and we are stayong at the Tisalaya apartments in PDC at the moment and if you go and see Juan the manager he may give you a good deal instead of booking on a comparison site they are basic but very clean
Alright Kevin when you arrived home i thought you'd be singing i Belong to Glasgow sorry about your lost videos and Kevin I'm looking forward to Videos from Puerto Del Carmen By for now Kevin. David
Naughty boy getting dropped off at the Bus Stop the Ayr Glasgow Express Bus guys get a bit upset with that lol Kevin hope you have a few SD cards with you !!!!!! Everytime we leave from Prestwick it’s always about 0545 so no chance of anyone joining a live then

Brilliant video and the comments are spot on. Thanks.
To continue my dad was involved in the lengthening of the runway for B17 bombers to land , From ex Kilmarnock man , Johannesburg .🏴

Saw my aunt and uncle leave from Prestwick 1963. Flew on a 707 to New York and back on Queen Mary
Prestwick was the only place in the UK that Elvis visited!!! have a great stay in Lanzarote, visit the volcano. it's amazing!!!

Ffs that's like the airport in North Korea
Why do they call it Glasgow Prestwick when its nowhere near Glasgow.
Marketing lol
Same reason many airports chose to use a neighbouring cities name
DRAMA??? Click air.
What was the drama? All your video titles are click bait bulls*it.
Watch video I explain , why u watch them lol
Couldn't understand a word.
