KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Edinburgh to Melbourne Airport

  • To get from Edinburgh city centre to Edinburgh Turnhouse Airport (EDI), you have a few options. The most convenient way is to take a taxi or use a ride-hailing service for a direct and hassle-free journey. Alternatively, you can also use the Airlink bus service, which offers frequent connections between the city centre and the airport, with multiple stops along the way.
  • Those of you travelling on a budget and looking at self-transfer flights, make sure your flights don't have an airport change. Flights like easyJet and China Eastern offer flights via Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Shanghai Pu Dong (PVG). Ensure you have plenty of time at the stopover to collect your luggage and check-in. Make time for potential delays as well.
  • If you're travelling with more luggage, consider booking flights with major airlines like Qatar Airways and British Airways, which both include a generous baggage allowance included in the ticket price. British Airways and Qatar Airways both offer single-stopover flights via Doha Hamad International (DOH) and include 8 kg of cabin bags and 23 kg of checked baggage.
  • If you're flying with Turkish Airlines, double-check the baggage allowance on each flight. Turkish Airlines offers three different Economy options with different allowances. Flights with multiple stopovers typically only include cabin bags, while single-stopover flights with a stopover at Istanbul Airport (IST) allow carry-on bags and checked luggage. Eco Flexible has both luggage options, while EcoFly tickets only include carry-on.
  • Those who want to travel in the lap of luxury can look at booking Business Class tickets with major airlines. Business Class Cabins are offered through airlines like Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, and British Airways. Qatar Airways is the only airline offering Business Class with single-stopover flights via Doha. Britsh Airways and Turkish Airlines both offer Business Class flights with two stopovers en route.
