Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is Scotland’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making it a common choice for both business and leisure travelers. The airport sits about 8 miles (13 km) west of the city centre, with the tram providing a direct link in roughly 30–35 minutes; trams and Lothian Buses usually charge fares in the low single-digit GBP range. Taxis and ride-hailing are quicker (around 25–30 minutes) but can be noticeably more expensive, while airport parking tends to appeal to drivers who prefer flexibility. Pros: frequent international connections and a compact layout for easy transfers. Cons: can be busy at peak times and tram/bus journeys may be slower than a taxi.
Dubai is served mainly by Dubai International (DXB), a major global hub handling most long‑haul and premium carriers, and Al Maktoum/DWC, a growing secondary airport often used by low‑cost and cargo operators. DXB is centrally located about 10–15 km from the city centre; the Dubai Metro Red Line connects terminals to downtown in roughly 15–25 minutes with fares from low single digits to around ten AED. DWC sits farther south, roughly 35–50 km away, reachable by taxi or shuttle in about 45–60 minutes and typically costing more than a metro ride. DXB can be more convenient and frequent but busier and sometimes pricier; DWC can offer lower fares or less crowding on budget routes, though transfer times and ground transport options may be more limited.
