McGill’s Group have announced a direct bus service connecting Aberdeen city centre to Edinburgh Airport.
It will launch on Monday, April 28, taking travellers from Littlejohn Street to the terminal.
There will be eight services in each direction every day, with a journey time of 2 hours and 40 minutes.
The schedule has been developed with peak times in mind, including early morning and late evening flights.
It’s an expansion of the Fly coach network, which was previously introduced in Dundee, with the operators promising a fast, comfortable and great-value alternative for Granite City travellers heading to and from Scotland’s busiest airport.
