To get to the airport with public transportation, you can catch the Airlink 100 bus from any central point in the city or catch a train from any main station in Edinburgh, leading you directly to the airport. Taxis are another good option, as the airport is not based far from central Edinburgh. When you arrive in London, you will have a variety of airports to choose from. Your three primary airport choices will be Stansted (STN), Gatwick (LGW) and Luton Airport (LTN), as these have a lot of flights available on a regular basis. Gatwick is close in terms of distance, so perhaps factor your ground travel time into your schedule and book a flight that takes you to a more convenient London-based airport. From Gatwick, there is the Gatwick Express train, which will take you directly into London via Victoria Station. Stansted Airport also has an express train to head straight to the city. If you land at Luton Airport, you can make use of the airport's parkway train station. A shuttle from the airport takes passengers to the station every 15 minutes or so.

In London, you will primarily choose from Gatwick, Stansted or Luton. If you arrive at Gatwick you will find a premier airport that is one of the biggest and busiest in London, with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable landing. Stansted is much smaller yet still offers great facilities, lounges and shopping. It is based farther away from London than all the other London-serving airports, so you will need to accommodate extra ground travel.
