What is at the other end
Greenock is where a large share of round-Britain and Norwegian-fjord cruises actually begin, despite being marketed as 'Glasgow'. The terminal sits on the Clyde with the hills of Argyll across the water. It is the closest cruise port to Glasgow Airport by a wide margin — Edinburgh Airport to Greenock is around 90 minutes.
Who travels this route
Cruise passengers embarking or disembarking, often with two large cases each.
What to know before you book
Cruise luggage is the heaviest of any traveller group. Four passengers with eight large cases is a two-vehicle question, so send the case count.
Frequently asked
How far is Greenock Ocean Terminal from Glasgow Airport?
About 20 miles, M8 west then A8 along the Clyde, taking 30 to 40 minutes.
Will you wait if disembarkation runs late?
Yes. Ships clear passengers in waves and the last group can be nearly two hours behind the first; we hold the car.
