Edinburgh Airport (EDI) is Scotland’s primary international gateway, serving a mix of full-service carriers and budget airlines that typically link the city with major European hubs and UK domestic routes. Located about 8 miles (13 km) west of the city centre, it’s usually reachable by tram or airport bus in roughly 30–40 minutes; taxis can be faster depending on traffic, often taking 20–30 minutes at a higher cost. Tram and Lothian Buses provide frequent, competitively priced connections while car hire and park-and-ride options can suit longer stays. The airport is generally convenient and compact for transfers, though security and peak-time queues can make busy periods less comfortable for some travellers.

London is served by several distinct airports that together cover premium international hubs and budget-focused gateways. Heathrow (LHR) is the main long-haul hub, typically used by full-service carriers and alliance partners; Gatwick (LGW) handles a mix of international and leisure flights and often features both legacy and low-cost airlines. Stansted (STN) and Luton (LTN) are commonly budget-oriented, popular with low-cost carriers; City (LCY) caters to business travelers with closer proximity to central London. Travel times to central London vary: Heathrow ~40–60 minutes by Tube or Heathrow Express (fastest, higher fares), Gatwick ~30–45 minutes by Gatwick Express or rail, Stansted/Luton ~45–75 minutes by coach or train, City ~20–30 minutes by DLR/Elizabeth Line. Fares for public transport can range widely depending on service and time of day; airport coach services tend to be cheaper but slower. Pros include extensive route choices and frequent services; cons can be longer transfer times, congested terminals, and variable costs for premium express links.
