Getting there by Car / Taxi

Prestwick airport is situated close to Prestwick town centre, and is accessible from the A79. Whether travelling from the north or the south, the best way to approach Prestwick is using the A77, from which there are turnings for the A79. Alternatively, visitors to the airport could approach from the nearby town of Ayr - again using the A79. Taxis can be booked in advance.

This service does not run at night; it is replaced by the X99 which runs last thing at night and first thing in the morning.
