Edinburgh opened as a civil airport in 1947 on a former air-force field and grew into Scotland's busiest airport.

Two runways, the main one around 2,558 metres, handling large aircraft and every current business jet.

Edinburgh handled around 15.8 million passengers in 2024, the busiest airport in Scotland.

Yes. Edinburgh is a 24-hour airport, useful for late arrivals and early departures around events.

Edinburgh offers 24-hour operation, a private jet FBO, and quick access to the city, the golf coast, and the summer festival, the natural gateway to eastern Scotland.

Edinburgh takes any cabin. A golf group to the links takes a Challenger 350; a family uses a Citation XLS; a transatlantic sector to New York suits a Gulfstream G650ER. We match the private jet to the day.

Private jet hire from Edinburgh is quoted per trip, by aircraft and flight time. A short European hop starts in the lower thousands of pounds; transatlantic heavy jets reach six figures. We settle in pounds or euros, and where you prefer, in US dollars.

Edinburgh operates 24 hours, which helps with tight timing. For transatlantic or long sectors we ask for around four hours to arrange slots, permits, and crew. A regional hop can be set up in under an hour, around fifty-five minutes, with documents and payment ready.

At Edinburgh you typically arrive through the FBO fifteen to thirty minutes before departure, step through a private lounge, and board directly, no queues and no public concourse. We confirm the exact timing with your final details.

A Challenger 350 carries full luggage and golf bags for a party of eight; a Gulfstream G650ER takes a full party of twelve. We size the hold at quoting stage for your flight from Edinburgh.

Pets travel in the cabin. The United Kingdom sits outside the EU pet passport scheme and uses its own rules, with a microchip, a valid rabies vaccination, and a GB health certificate; tapeworm treatment applies for dogs on entry. Request the full document checklist for Edinburgh via WhatsApp.

It is simple and quick. To hire a private jet to or from Edinburgh, send your route details to Fly With Andreea over WhatsApp, receive option prices within minutes, and choose the aircraft that suits you. Send your travel documents, request the charter contract for confirmation, then proceed with payment. From first message to confirmed booking is often a single conversation, and we can also flag suitable empty leg flights when the timing fits.

Chartering a private jet from Edinburgh costs from €6,000 for a short light jet hop up to €150,000 for the longest routes on this page, always quoted as one fixed all-in figure. See the full cost guide at flywithandreea.com/private-jet-charter-cost, and message Andreea for a firm figure for your dates.

About EUR 6,000 to EUR 8,000 on a light jet, roughly 1h 04m in the air. The exact figure depends on the date and aircraft positioning; Andreea confirms one fixed all-in price in writing.

As a rule of thumb, EUR 5,600 to 9,400 on a light jet and EUR 9,400 to 12,600 on a midsize, before positioning and handling. A two hour flight from Edinburgh covers roughly 1,300 km, city pairs like the routes listed above.

About 1h 26m wheels up to wheels down on a midsize jet, with boarding at the private terminal taking minutes rather than hours. Timings vary with winds and routing.

For one traveller on a trunk route, first class is usually cheaper. For a family or a team, once you divide the aircraft price by seats and count the hours saved through the private terminal, charter from Edinburgh is often closer than people expect, and an empty leg can beat first class outright.

It is never expected and always appreciated. Crews are professionals paid accordingly; if the service was exceptional, a tip or a note to the operator lands equally well. There is no etiquette obligation either way.
