Maggie MacGAugust 24, 2015I here this airport was recently remodeled. It paid off. Very user friendly.
4Sq ScotlandOctober 5, 2011Picking up a friend / relative? Go with the short stay car park which is £3.50 for an hour!
Ganesh MurthyJune 7, 2018EDI has only 1 terminal. Checking in and bag drop is slower - fewer counters. Security screening flags lot of bags but most times nothing is found. Arrive early! Lounge is very average.
Check out the planes. There is a really good selection on offer.
Possibly the worlds worst airport. Security is slow and unorganised. Forced walk via duty free, more shopping mall than airport. Avoid if at all possible
If you're a pilot of a commercial jet going to Edinburgh, this is a great place to land.
Steven VermeulenAugust 4, 2013Security putts all you legal liquids in a plastic bag, so do it yourself upfront
Short stay parking prices have risen since the BAA sell off. 1 week has gone from £50 to £75.
Tom GDecember 13, 2011Get the 35 bus uf you're skint but it takes 1hour to get there from bristo square...
William DuckworthAugust 12, 2014Good breakfast for flights in the morning. Also a nice small airport so nothing is too far away
Passengers would really appreciate free wi-fi internet. Otherwise, you just feel you're in a tiny little airport from some tiny little town... And not edinburgh's. :-/
The cost to use fasttrack security is only £3. Well worth it during the summer holidays
Don't wear an airside pass when catching a flight as they aren't allowed to serve you alcohol with one. I learnt the hard way
Tim BellApril 24, 2011Airlink buses give off free wifi! Pick it up just next to them if you don't want to buy a ticket ;-)
often long queues at security in the morning as they don't open all security lanes so arrive early!
Take a picture if your flight is delayed. We'll make a collage by the end of the year :-)
Gerry McCaffertyMay 8, 2013Security seems to be getting busier over the last few weeks for some reason. Would leave yourself half an hour for security at least!!
Michael BoltonFebruary 12, 2012More choice pre security not sure a seafood bar and yo sushi are my first choice of restaurants needed in the small terminal and it's £1 to drop off rising to £5 after 10 mins bit of a rip off
Fast track security queue is often longer than the regular queue, save your money!
There's a Costa and whsmith near gates 1a-c. Use to avoid the crowds- The new airport security (introduced in November 2014) is very slow. Expect long queues and frustated people 😔
Magenta SunsetNovember 20, 2010You can't take the train from the airport, you have to take the bus into the city centre where the Waverly Train Station is located
When Dropping Off make sure you have £1 and don't pay by card. You can only Drop Off in the Drop Off area
Save time and travel to the airport naked, you'll only have to get dressed all over again after Security...- Almost calm, sane and tolerable at 8am, waiting for 9am flight. And daylight too!
omarAugust 14, 2012Despite the cute name, EDI security is ruthless. They made us move our liquids into tiny bags, all for the security theatre of it. Realize security may be slow- Steven VermeulenAugust 4, 2013Pass security check fast. You have food, drinks and shops after security

"Branston pickle flavoured cheese things are great!"
Calvin 
"Arrive with plenty of time for security. It's not big and if there's a couple of big flights you can easily be in there for 30 mins plus."
stuart vernor
"Perfect service. Wifi, power supply (usb also). Best way to go to old town from airport."
