Airline and stopovers
Wizz Air UK is your carrier on this route. The flight includes one stopover, so it's not direct from Bilbao to Edinburgh. This is standard on budget routes: an intermediate stop keeps your ticket price down. You'll have connection time to factor in, but the savings are worth it.
Best time to visit
Edinburgh is beautiful year-round, but think about your comfort. Summer (June to August) draws more tourists and may push prices higher. Autumn and winter offer a more authentic experience with fewer crowds, though it's colder and wetter. Spring strikes a good balance between weather and value. Choose based on your cold tolerance and how much you enjoy quieter travel.
What to do when you arrive
Edinburgh Airport is 13 km from the city centre. Edinburgh Castle towers over the city from Castle Rock, a volcanic formation: it's the top sight. The Royal Mile runs downhill with shops, pubs and history. Holyrood Palace, the official royal residence, sits at the Mile's foot. National museums are excellent and many are free. If time allows, climb Arthur's Seat for 360-degree views across the city and beyond.
