Getting to Edinburgh
By air
Edinburgh has one of the UK's fastest growing airports and new flights are always being added. At the EICC, we have the
luxury of being located right in the heart of the city and within 10km (6 miles) of Edinburgh International Airport. For the
latest information about flights to Edinburgh, visit the website at www.edinburghairport.com. There are a number of
ways to travel into the city centre from the airport, as described below.
From Edinburgh Airport by Bus
The Airlink 100 operates a frequent bus service (every 10 minutes at peak times) between Edinburgh Airport and the city
centre, with designated stops en route. The service starts at 04.30 and runs until 00.22 at night, with the journey taking
30 minutes. Tickets cost £3.50 single and £6.00 return. The airport bus has several stops including Haymarket station
(10 minute walk from EICC) and it terminates at Waverley station. Taxi ranks are available at both stations.
The N22 bus also departs from outside the Airport entrance and runs every half an hour through the night until the Airlink
service starts again. For more information about these services visit www.flybybus.com.
From Edinburgh Airport by Taxi
There is an excellent taxi service from the airport to the city. You'll find official airport taxis at the taxi rank outside the
terminal building (follow the signs within the airport). It costs approximately £20 to get a taxi from the airport to the city
centre and the journey takes 20 minutes depending on the time of day.
By train
Edinburgh has two railway stations - Waverley and Haymarket. Waverley is the main station and has direct routes to
many cities across the country, including over 25 daily departures from London. For more information on the rail network
within the UK visit www.nationalrail.co.uk
By bus / coach
Edinburgh's main bus terminal is located at St Andrews Square. Bus connections stretch right across the UK. For details
of these routes visit: www.nationalexpress.com or www.citylink.co.uk. For information on local bus services throughout
Edinburgh visit: http://lothianbuses.com/index2.php
By car
The EICC is right in the centre of Edinburgh. The main entrance is on Morrison Street. For directions from your home or
office visit www.multimap.com and input EH3 8EE for the destination postcode. There are many car parks in close
walking distance to the EICC. Please visit www.ncp.co.uk for details on National Car Parks in Edinburgh.
Passport and visa
Visitors from some countries require a visa to enter the UK. Please check with your travel agent. Participants who require
a visa should allow plenty of time for their application to be processed. The Institute of Physics can issue the standard
letter of invitation to those participants with an accepted presentation at the conference and from whom payment has
been received in full for their registration. For those not making a presentation, the Institute of Physics cannot issue
invitation letters. Delegates will instead receive a letter confirming the conference details and confirmation of payment
of registration.

Scotland, Dynamic Earth presents all aspects of the planet we live in. Population growth, concepts of time and the
realities of climate change are just the tip of the iceberg - and we even have a real one of those too, sitting beneath the
magical Aurora Borealis.

More on Edinburgh and what’s on
Edinburgh is a compact city, ideal for pedestrians, and a delight to walk through – most venues are located in the city
centre. Remember to always carry a venues map with you and you’ll soon work out the main areas where performances
are taking place.
Some venues are literally within a stone’s throw of one another – particularly in the Old Town, where you wouldn’t need
more than five to ten minutes to walk from the Royal Mile to the the many.
Walking times depend on how much of a contemplative soul you are, but as guidance a Scottish brisk walk from
Waverley Station can take you to most city centre venues in as little as 20 minutes and the Royal Botanic Gardens could
be reached in 30 minutes. If you are walking to places like The Shore in Leith then allow yourself 45 minutes to get there.
Edinburgh has plenty of cyclists, so if you’re thinking of bringing your bike along you will be in good company. But
remember the city is quite hilly!
If you require transportation the network of buses is excellent, covering not just the city but also its outskirts; most
venues are never far from a bus stop. Single fares cost £1.40 but if you’re using the bus on more than two journeys then
just get an all-day ticket with unlimited travel for £3.50. For more information on routes and timetables go to
www.lothianbuses.co.uk.
There are a variety of taxi ranks dotted around central Edinburgh. Look for the unmistakable black cabs: an orange light
on means the taxi is available.
If you are bringing your own car please beware that Edinburgh has limited parking and strict restrictions in place. In the
city centre the vast majority of parking is pay and display – always check the instructions on the meter and carry plenty of
coins with you.
