Like most airports arriving at Edinburgh can be a stressful time if you are note sure what awaits you when you arrive.
There is noting worse than that stressful feeling of where to go and what to do to get into Edinburgh city centre or to your accommodation. When you first disembark the aircraft you will need to make your way to passport control, baggage reclaim and customs and then you are on your own.
Manchester Airport and London Airports both have more than one terminal building and it can get confusing working out which one you should be at and how to get between them. Edinburgh airport has only one terminal building so at least you do not have to worry about that
If you are lucky enough to being collected by a friend then try to pre-arrange a suitable meeting point prior to your arrival. The airport has designated meeting points in the terminal building however it is probably advisable to get whoever is collecting you to suggest the best place to meet
With no rail connection to Edinburgh airport you could use Edinburgh shuttle bus service, which runs a regular service to and from the city centre and the main hotels. There is also a bus service (service Airlink 100) to the city centre every 10 to 15 minutes and takes around 20 to 25 minutes depending on the traffic. This service is cheaper but will not take you to your hotel unlike the shuttle bus.
As with all airports there is an airport taxi service and again like all airport taxi services they are not the cheapest. They do however offer convenient and quick journey times and can take you exactly where you want to go.
Car hire is available within the terminal building however it is recommended that you pre-book online prior to your arrival so you get the car you want and it is ready for your arrival. You can also better manage your budget knowing in advance what you have to pay. Having a car does provide a convenience not available with public transport.
Don’t worry and take the stress out of your travel arrangements and arrive at Edinburgh stress free and plan ahead
