Edinburgh Airport:
Edinburgh airport is is within easy access of Fife, Tayside and Aberdeenshire (for actual distances see the table at the bottom of the page). Edinburgh, the Borders and is often used in preference to Glasgow Airport by many people due to ongoing improvements to the transport system in and around Edinburgh. By comparison many find the transport system in and around Glasgow to be overburdened especially in areas such as the Kingston Bridge which often jammed!
Edinburgh's transport system has been designed for the pedestrian and public transport, it is therefore well worth avoiding hiring a car and taking full advantage of the excellent
and reasonably priced airport bus. There is an airport bus approximately every 15 minutes throughout the day and around every 20 minutes at night. An open return costs about £5 and the journey takes around 15 minutes. Buy tickets on the bus. You could always hire a taxi but expect to pay around £15 for a 15 minute journey.
