Travel from Edinburgh airport to Murryfield?


Travel Info
OK, this is my problem. I have tickets to the rugby world cup game between Scotland and N.Z on the 23/9. Obviously the airlines have not added on flights (why would they...) so I am left with 2 options as I need to fly back to London that evening.
1] From Edinburgh airport @ 20.20
2] From Glasgow airport @ 21.25 (much cheaper)

The match kicks off @ 16.00 so it should be over at about 18.00-18.10.

My question is - taking into account that it is a Sunday, but that there will be 67000 rugby fans with me, how long (and how) will it take me to get toEdinburghor Glasgow and which is the better option? I really hope that someone can help - thanks.

Travel Tips
I am not sure of the exact timetables, but citylink buses run at approximately half hour intervals.
You would probably have to change at Buchanan Street to get to Glasgow airport, but I hope this helps. The attached links are for this month as the timetables don't appear to be that far in advance, but it should give you an idea.

PS. do you have a spare ticket? Source(s): http://www.citylinkonlinesales.co.uk/jpl...

where are you travel from.

Glasgow to Edinburgh trains 9Journet 40 mins.) run every 30 mins arriving at Haymarket, its a ten minute taxi ride or a 20 minute walk.

From Airport Taxi or local bus, about 20 mins.

Can't help further.
I would reccomend bus or train if you don't want to spend a lot. If you don't care about how much it all costs just get a cab.

I would take the easy option and take the Airport shuttle bus from/to Edinburgh Airport. There is a stop at Murrayfield for both ways.
