I can share the latest publicly available updates I can access directly, but I don’t currently have a live feed in this moment. Here’s what’s been reported recently about Glasgow Prestwick Airport:

• STV reported major security and operations activity around late July 2025 in advance of a high-profile visit by the US president to Scotland, with preparations at Prestwick noted by local authorities.

If you’d like, I can:

• Narrow to a specific date range (e.g., the past 3 months) and summarize the most recent items.
• Pull official statements from the airport’s media centre or local news outlets for citations.
• Create a quick timeline of notable events (cargo services, spaceport progress, incidents) to visualize activity.

Would you like me to focus on a particular aspect (passenger services, cargo, spaceport, safety/regulatory updates) or provide brief, up-to-date citations for each item?
