The Heliport is located at Linthouse Road in Govan, close to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

The ground facilities consist of a maintenance hangar building and parking for 6 small to medium-sized helicopters.

Aircraft permanently operating from Glasgow City Heliport are: Historically a Scottish Ambulance Service aircraft (Airbus H145) was based on site, until the contract was in-housed away from Babcock by Gama Aviation[2] and moved to Glasgow Airport.

Glasgow City Heliport still provides support to HEMS acting as a refuel site and forward operating base for Scotlands Charity Air Ambulance (Eurocopter EC135) based at Perth Airport.

Prior to May 2014 the heliport was located approximately 1.5 mi (2.4 km) East from its present location, within the grounds of the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre and directly across the River Clyde from the Glasgow Science Centre and BBC Scotland's Pacific Quay Studios.
