Check-in, security and access to gates are faster. Free wifi only for 2 hours. If you have lot of time, goto gate 20-23 as there are more seats, and charging points for your mobile/laptop there.Upvoted 1 week ago
Hans AverdungMarch 6, 2018Spent 8 hours waiting for a new flight after Snowmagedon.uk and it was quite comfy. The Costa next to international arrivals has very friendly personnelUpvoted May 4
Gbenga MogajiDecember 7, 2014No need getting to Edinburgh Waverly ( from Glasgow), alight from Haymarket and get the Tram. £5 for adult single ticket.Upvoted Apr 23
Fast security check.Many destinations. Plenty of cafes. Always busy. Buses outside to grt u to the center every 10 min or to glasgow every 30min.
If you’re arriving on an international flight, I would like to apologise on behalf of the people Scotland for your arrival in a building with all the aesthetics of a cattle shed. Enjoy your visit!
Probably the easiest, smoothest most relaxing security check ever. It's so well designed I'd happily go through twice in a visit.
Like the airport primarily because I love the city. Taxis are a walk out if the main building through the canopy.
Arrive really early - particularly if you have bags to check in. Security is either very quick or *very very* slow, and staff *will* shout at you if you don’t understand the system.- Mahdi HosseiniSeptember 29, 2017Too much strict about liquid! You can'r take your shampoo if it has a 100ml bottle,but it's less than 30ml itself! Costa cafe is the only open place there at midnight.
Domestic flight arrivals require that you fight your way through the departure terminal which is over crowded and has overly narrow walk ways. Departure security is a shambles at any time of day
Olya VanchikovaMarch 15, 20144£ to get here with citylink bus from and to the centre, 2 hours free wi-fi, nice and clean WC premises, good and helpful stuff!
Hamilton PereiraSeptember 16, 2014There's a citylink bus that takes you directly to Glasgow city center every half hour during peak time. It's on stance 6 and you pay 11£ directly to the bus driver.
Security queues can get long, so don't faff about go straight through. Past security lots of retail and food options.
Colin WhiteJuly 31, 2013Catching a BA Airbus A320 to London? The middle seats on the right of the plane are wider than those on the left. Seat E wider than seat B!
🄵🄴🄻🄸🅇 dnǝʇsɔɥSeptember 6, 2018Super efficient. The bus 100 to downtown leaves from Bay D just outside the terminal. They accept credit cards and Google Pay.
B. Aaron TalbotOctober 23, 2016easy to navigate and get to, lots of food options and i bought some great whisky at a great price...
If you are picking someone up wait in the park and ride at the top of the road and get them to call you when they are at the pick up point , it only costs £1 to go through.
Irene PasquinelliApril 20, 2017Recently renewed and slightly fancy. Food available also from early morning. Few benches without armrest to sleep in!- Between gates 25-26 there's a rack to pick up free newspapers and magazines. Times, FT... leave the S*n on the shelf though #JFT96
Great Seafood Bar that also has a nice selection of champagne & wine for those that like to indulge themselves before flying!
The BA lounge is nice and quiet, if you're lucky to be Silver and above or fly business that day. Rest of the airport is noisy and it's tough to find seats.
Cenk GümüşcüoğluSeptember 28, 2014Free Wi-Fi for 2 hours... Airlink city buses are on the 19th stand right outside the building. Actually the city is so small that you'll start thinking you could have even "walked" to the city center.
Mustafa SevinçJanuary 23, 201530 minutes to Waverley Bridge by bus (Airlink 100) where you can take train to almost all UK. It costs 4£. Free wi-fi both in airport and bus.
XeelizJune 28, 2014New lounge opened, called Aspire. Small but very nice. Lovely staff, pretty nice for snacks too.- Mahdi HosseiniSeptember 29, 20172hrs free WiFi .Not enough seats. Only Costa cafe is open at midnights. Easy accessable from/to Edinburgh. Check in 2hrs before your flight. If not, It would cost you £50 if you're flying with Ryanair
Make sure to visit the 'World of Whisky' shop while you're here. They have quite a lot of different whiskies there
Richard BomanJuly 9, 2014Keep like items, (liquids, electronics, etc in easy to access groups) and get Whisky!
LexiSeptember 4, 2022Based on other reviews, I got to the airport super early and got fast track yet the queue was very minimal.
Stephen MorganMay 14, 2012Grab the express bus into town. It's quick and only £3.50. A cab will set you back £20.- Possibly the UKs worst airport! If you can avoid it do so! You are likely to be be put on a bus a driven slowly nowhere! Security is a shambles so don’t arrive at the last moment it takes an eternity
JohnnieAugust 30, 2013The espresso from EAT. is like mud. Serving cheap and nasty Robusta instead of gorgeous and lovely Arabica beans is a disgrace, and a crime against humanity.
moko anggoroSeptember 3, 2014They have excellent free Wifi here. The transportation to Edinburgh city center is also excellent.
Be prepared for a tour of the airport by bus when you return! 😡

Timothy John GarciaMarch 12, 2015Plenty of shops and cafes. Take the tram outside to get downtown within 25 minutes!
Try the lovely big massaging chairs in the departure lounge - you should never pass up the opportunity for a chair massage in my opinion.- If you prepare and follow the well laid out path it's excellent. Smooth security and great customer service.
Very nice service, small shops, exchange ... All what you need- Duke of Wellington Or am I just GODSeptember 8, 2022Good not big airport. Chitty room. Lots of food outlets. I recommend.
Sam GrimleyJune 12, 2013£3:50 single into town with free wifi on the Air Link. Can't complain at all, amazed there is a taxi rank
Chris WillardNovember 14, 2014The check in only open 2 hours before your flight so do go in super early.
Brisa LimaAugust 20, 2013Dont leave the place without trying the delicious scottish biscuits! Nero has a great coffee!- Brewdog at Gate 15 is good, but give yourself extra time - lots of renovations in check-in right now means it’s taking an age!
steglobalOctober 5, 2013AIRLINK coach is the best and only option to consider to get into the city centre (30mins). £6 for return trip, free wifi onboard the coach and plug sockets to charge your phone too. Perfect.
Jakub DubravčíkOctober 30, 2014They have a free wi-fi on the buses and there's also a free wireless for 2 hrs at the airport.
