Holidaymakers will now be able to savour the taste of Italy before they fly as Primo Volo launches in Glasgow Airport.

Located in the airport’s main departure lounge, the new eatery offers passengers a “vibrant and authentic Italian dining experience”.

Its menu features freshly made pasta dishes, ciabatta sandwiches, as well as classic Italian cocktails, such as spritzes and Negronis.

The launch of Primo Volo comes as part of a major shake-up which will see £3.7million worth of improvements made to Glasgow Airport.

Travellers can also look forward to the opening of a new Accessorize store and currency provider Travellex.

The Bird and Signet bar and kitchen will be upgraded, and the Stack and Still restaurant will also be relocated.
