  • How to get from the airport to the city centre?

    The airport is roughly 12km from the city centre and there are a few different transport options to get you there. You can get the Airlink 100 express and N22 night buses to Waverley Bridge. Normally it takes around 25 minutes. Lothian Bus No 35 also covers the route but does stop off at different places on the way and continues on to Leith. You could also hire a car or take a taxi from the airport. Trams are also an option that are frequent and normally very reliable. You can change at Edinburgh Park and Haymarket stations if you need to continue on somewhere else.

  • What is good to know if travelling to Edinburgh?

    A great place to visit in Edinburgh is the Scott Monument, a huge black, Victorian, gothic monument. It was made to honour Sir Walter Scott and you can pay to go to the top and see the spectacular views of the city. If your visit coincides with the end of January, you’ll be there for Burns Night. It’s a night of festive celebration and here you can find 6 of the best places to feast on haggis, neeps and tatties. You can’t go to Scotland without tasting all of the scotch on offer, so take a look and discover scotch in Edinburgh.Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is the busiest airport in Scotland, located 9km (almost 6 miles) west of the city centre. With trains and buses going into town at all hours, the airport is a convenient gateway to the UK’s Festival City. If you’re planning on booking a flight to Edinburgh during Fringe season do it as far in advance as possible. The original terminal was built in the 1970s, however it has been upgraded in recent years and a programme of expansion is underway. The arrivals and departure terminals are under one roof, albeit on different floors, so connecting to other flights is fairly hassle-free. However, the security check points are often over capacity at peak times. There are several restaurants, book shops and an art gallery, and the facilities are generally clean and well-maintained. The airport is also well-signed, so you should have no trouble getting around the building.

  • What does EDI mean?

    This is just an IATA (International Air Transport Association) code. IATA codes are used in aviation to identify and differentiate airports. That’s why a Edinburgh Turnhouse Airport flight would often be abbreviated as a EDI flight.
