MAPS AND DIRECTIONS

From The North
 
Heading from the north to Edinburgh Airport is reasonably straightforward. It is best to join the M90 heading southwards and eventually this will become the A90. Cross the A90 bridge at North Queensferry and follow the road round until you reach the A902. Turn onto the A902 until it reaches the A8. Turn westbound on the A8 and from there the airport and the Edinburgh Airport parking facilities will be clearly signposted.
 
From The South
 
When heading from the south it is best to start on the A74. Follow the A74 north and turn off at the A702. The A702 will lead you directly towards Edinburgh and as you start to approach the city it is vital to turn westbound on the A720. This road will lead you to the A8 at which drivers must turn westbound towards the airport. Once on the A8 the Edinburgh Airport parking facilities will be clearly signposted on the road.
 
From The West
 
When travelling from the west drivers have two options to approach Edinburgh airport, either the M8 or the M9. If you choose to take the M8 you must drive eastbound and exit at Junction 2 onto the M9. Drive along the M9 for a short distance and turn off at Junction 1 onto the A8. This road will pass by the airport. Alternatively, if travelling on the M9 it is best to follow the road towards Edinburgh and exit at Junction 1 onto the A8. The A8 displays clear directions to the Edinburgh Airport parking facilities.
 
From The East
 
Travelling from Edinburgh to Edinburgh Airport could not be simpler. All drivers are required to do is exit Edinburgh on the A8 and drive westbound until they reach the airport and the Edinburgh Airport parking facilities which are situated next to the A8.
