We made the decision to get to Glasgow by plane. For us it is easy to get to East Midlands Airport. We are just 20 minutes away by car, and under an hour by bus. And in cost terms there is not much in it between a train for two, or a plane for two.

We got to the airport in good time, taking note of the 2 hour recommended check in. time. East Mids Airports has been upgraded over the years, and now has a good collection of shops, and a  restaurant / bar. Just as well because the plane was due to board at 16.45, but in the end we didn't get on the plane till 17.30.

The flight to Glasgow was very quick and by 19.30 and a taxi later we were in the Premier Inn on George Street that we were staying in that night.
