Flights from Edinburgh
Every destination we track, priced from Edinburgh on its own search rather than borrowed from another airport. Each fare is a return for one person, taxes in, on the week it was found — and beside it, what the cheapest airport in the country charged for the same place.

From the route tables
Where can you fly direct from Edinburgh?
13 of the 30 destinations we track have a nonstop from Edinburgh: Marrakesh, Madeira, Istanbul, Agadir, Lanzarote, Dalaman, Tenerife, Antalya, Paphos, Hurghada, New York, Dubai and Orlando. Everything else is a one-stop trip from here.
The airlines are from each airport's published route table, which we re-check every season. A fare above can still be a connection on a route with a nonstop: the search allows one stop, and sometimes the connection is the cheaper ticket.
Against the other nine
Is Edinburgh the cheapest UK airport to fly from?
Edinburgh was not the cheapest UK airport for any of the 29 destinations it priced. Where it was not, it cost £153 more on average than the cheapest airport, and the widest gap was Tokyo: £713 over London.
Every airport is searched separately across the same six months and quoted at its own cheapest week, so the dates in the table are Edinburgh's, not the country's. A gap of a hundred pounds is worth pricing against the train, the parking and the extra day before you drive to another airport — but most people never find out it is there.
