The Glasgow Prestwick airport recently celebrated a new look and a new slogan. "Pure Dead Brilliant" is how the airport sees itself and how it promotes a humorous and fun image.
Prestwick airport buildings have just undergone a £3m renovation - the interior is colourful and the mood is upbeat. The clean and bright revamped surroundings are complemented by a series of eye catching posters showing different views and elements of Scotland. There is also an acknowledgment of Prestwick airport's history when the 'King of Rock and Roll' - Elvis Presley - stopped over on his way home from Germany with the US army.
Another taste of celebrity and the new look Prestwick Airport's first big test will be the G8 summit, as the world's leaders fly in to Prestwick Airport in July.
Travel Disruption is likely in Scotland when the VIP's fly in. Airport security chiefs have stopped plane, train and car movement around the Prestwick airport. About three thousand police officers will man Prestwick airport's perimeter as world leaders, including George Bush, arrive. The G8 summit will take place in Gleneagles, Perthshire.
