Flights to Edinburgh

Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city and one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the United Kingdom. Situated on the shore of the Firth of the river Forth, Edinburgh is divided between a very charming old town area which dates back to the reformation era and a new town which is updated and modern. The old town has preserved much of its medieval street plan so walking around there is like stepping back into that bygone age and the New Town is predictably more up to date with modern architecture. The fashionable west end area attracts many visitors and is known as the city's cultural centre with its many arts venues. Notable people of Edinburgh include literary giants Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator and author of Sherlock Holmes and J.K. Rowling, who began the first Harry Potter in an Edinburgh coffee shop. Crowning this great city is the famous Edinburgh Castle, which has been sitting atop the extinct volcanic Castle Rock since the 12th Century.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Edinburgh?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Edinburgh. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Edinburgh?
The answer is simple --- be organized. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Edinburgh, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
