Flight

Getting to Scotland

TRAVEL: Direct flights from the US to Edinburgh are available from New York, Boston, and most other major east coast cities. For our west coast guests, connections can be through the east coast or through London, Dublin, or Amsterdam. There are also many flights into Glasgow, which is about a 1-hour drive to Edinburgh, and similar transit time via train. There are also flights into other Scottish cities further from Edinburgh. Should these other cities work better for you, we can help you coordinate. Please let us know if we can help you with how best to fly.

Staying in Edinburgh

We recommend that our guests stay in Edinburgh, as we want everyone to have the opportunity to explore the city! Our welcome event will be in the city and close to recommended hotels. We will include more specific hotel recommendations later this summer, as well as information on shuttles from the City Centre to the venue on our wedding day. There are also many convenient Airbnb options available near the City Centre. Please check back later this summer for details.
