Overview

Flying private from EDI.

Edinburgh Airport (EGPH) is one of the main private aviation airports serving Edinburgh.

Edinburgh is open around the clock and its runway takes most business jets, with private passengers handled by Signature Aviation rather than in the main terminal.

The airport is about 9 km from the city centre and runs as a Level 2 facilitated airport, so schedules are agreed with the coordinator rather than through formal slots.

Flights are operated by CAA-certified operators.
