About Edinburgh Airport

Edinburgh Airport is Scotland's busiest airport and handles both commercial traffic and a significant volume of oil industry rotary-wing operations serving North Sea platforms. Its position to the west of Edinburgh, exposed to Atlantic weather systems, means it frequently experiences strong crosswinds and low cloud that reduce runway capacity. The airport has seen rapid growth in transatlantic routes in recent years, increasing its sensitivity to US-originating ground stop impacts.
