Flying from Edinburgh
Edinburgh is Scotland's busiest airport and the gateway most international visitors choose for the Highlands as well as the city itself. The terminal sits 8 miles west of Edinburgh centre with frequent tram and Airlink bus service. easyJet, Jet2 and Ryanair dominate short-haul; KLM, Lufthansa and BA add full-service connections to European hubs; Emirates and Qatar route long-haul through their own hubs. Atlantic weather can disrupt winter schedules — build in a buffer if you're connecting.
