Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is Scotland's premier airport, serving about the same throughput of passengers as Glasgow Airport and providing a gateway to the capital city and the east of Scotland.

There is just one terminal at Edinburgh Airport, which is served by numerous airlines that travel to more than 100 worldwide destinations.

Getting to the city: Airlink 100 buses connect between the airport and the city centre every 10 minutes, from early morning until after midnight, and cost £3 (calling at the Waverley and Haymarket train stations). There are many alternative buses including Night bus N22, Service 35 and Airdirect 747, that run to the city centre via a couple of stops en route. Stops for public buses are situated at stand 18 on the terminal forecourt road outside the UK Arrivals Hall. The designated taxi rank is also outside the UK Arrivals Hall beside the coach park. Car rental companies are also available. Journey time to the city centre is about 25 minutes.
