Find buses from Liverpool to Glasgow Intl Airport

Buses from Liverpool to Glasgow run on a very regular schedule, most of them concentrated in the early morning, and there are around 10 each day, including on weekends (about 70 buses per week). The typical daily timetable follows a pattern of around seven buses in the early morning, to cater for the peak rush hour, with a single bus in the late morning, one in the late afternoon and one in the early evening. National Express operates the vast majority of these buses to Glasgow from Liverpool, with one provided by FlixBus and Megabus each every day. They leave from a number of stations in different parts of the city, providing convenient access for Liverpool residents.

The first bus can sometimes vary. The standard first buses from Liverpool to Glasgow leave at around 07:00, and there are two of them, both operated by National Express. However, you can sometimes find an early bus, operated by Megabus, which leaves at about 06:05. The same holds for the day’s last buses to Glasgow from Liverpool. The last bus is usually a National Express route, leaving at about 19:45. On some days, however, this is replaced by a combined National Express/Megabus trip, which generally leaves just after 19:30. All buses except one of the early morning trips make a single connection on the way. However, this doesn’t add much to the average travel time of roughly 8h 50min.

Buses from Liverpool to Glasgow depart from various stations. A few leave from Liverpool James Street Station, about 2min from the city centre on an Arriva Merseyside No. 10A or 18 bus.

Edge Lane Station is another departure point for buses to Glasgow from Liverpool. You can get there on the No. 7 Arriva Merseyside bus in about 20min. Lastly, there are a couple of buses a day from University of Liverpool Station. It's virtually in the city centre, either a roughly 15min walk or an approximately 2min taxi ride.
