You can easily connect to the airport via bus or tram from Edinburgh centre with a journey time of around 30min and ticket prices ranging from around £2-6. Cardiff Airport is the only international airport in Wales and the busiest, sitting at just under 12 miles west of Cardiff centre in South Wales. You can reach Cardiff city centre from the airport by bus or train within around an hour at an approximate cost of £12-18. A shuttle bus service will conveniently take you from Cardiff Airport and drop you at Rhoose Station where you can pick up transport connections direct to Cardiff.

Question 33

Vueling airlines and Jet2 also offer a route from Edinburgh Airport to Cardiff Airport via Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI) with one stopover for 4h 20min and a total journey duration of 9h 50min. You can also fly with Ryanair and Vueling airlines with two stopovers in Lanzarote Airport (ACE) and Alicante Airport (ALC) for 8h 25min transfer in Lanzarote and a 9h 30min transfer wait time in Alicante Airport, which extends the total journey time to 27h 30min.
