Prestwick Airport Taxi vs. the Train
Prestwick Airport has its own railway station with ScotRail services to Glasgow Central. However, a fixed-price taxi is often the better choice, especially for groups, families, or anyone heading to Ayrshire or other destinations not served by the train.
Train from PIK

- There is very little space for large suitcases or pushchairs on busy commuter trains
- There is no train from Prestwick Airport to Ayr, Kilmarnock, Troon, or Irvine direct
- You still need a further taxi or bus to reach your final address from Glasgow Central
- Nobody is there to help you carry your bags or assist with young children
Direct Airport Taxi
- We pick you up at your door and take you straight to any address across Ayrshire or Glasgow
- You pay one fixed price with never any extra charges per person in your group
- You pay the fixed price you saw at booking, even if it takes you longer than expected to clear the terminal
- Because our trusted network partners track your flight, your driver adjusts for delays automatically
- Your driver greets you in the arrivals hall with a name board and helps with your bags
- We run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year long including Scottish bank holidays
- Child seats and booster seats can be added to your booking, and your driver always helps with your bags
