“The parking and the parking staff, are both great. However the sysytem has tried to charge us on departure the last two times we have used it. After paying £170 for 3 weeks, don't expect it to try and charge us £6.50 for being 10 minutes after the time on the booking. We can't enter hours extra on the pick up time as you require the flight number and arrival time for moving the vehicles. Also we are disgusted that the airport now charges £1 for trolley usage, after being in 6 other airports in the last 3 weeks, including Changi in Singapore, NO ONE charges for trolleys. Welcome to rip-off Scotland.”
“I mistakenly booked for Friday and return Friday. I couldn’t cancel without being registered which I hadn’t done. I rebooked to park Friday to Saturday. When I went to park I explained on the intercom the situation and I was told it would be fine. As I exited the car park on Saturday night it wouldn’t let me out and wanted £90. I explained again what had happened and after sitting for about 5 mins I was let out. Make the cancel my booking easier as I am out of pocket. We always use this car park as it is easy to get to and within walking distance.”
“Was booked into the terminal for two days; on arrival every floor had lots of spaces but they all had traffic cones and tape across them, was difficult to find a space!”
“The parking was great but I dropped and lost my car key. Dropped in the bay. I tried to get in touch but it's impossible to speak to a human. I completed the online lost property form but nobody ever got back to me. Very disappointing”
“Overall the experience was good. Cheap easy and quick. However the snow was forecast and the car park was a complete mess. No salt had been put down and I nearly fell three times walking to the car.”
“I found the entrance to the car park in my car without difficulty. However, finding my way on foot from the car to an exit proved difficult in the extreme because of the lack of signposting. I was dragging my suitcase around for about 15 minutes before accidentally finding the pedestrian exit.
On returning to my car, I was following exit signs for about five minutes, up and down, and round and round. The signposting was misleading and inadequate.”
“First time at Edinburgh Airport. Parking was pretty decent but signage for a first timer to the terminal was terrible. Had no idea where it was in pitch dark.”
“Great car parking but the attitude of the man when my ticket wouldn’t work at the exit was shabby and rude. There are some really helpful people but not him. Sorry.”
“I am a frequest flyer to and from London and for what must be approaching the 15th time in a row the barrier at the mid stay has asked me for an outstanding £100 charge on exit despite having paid online. The last time I left a review the response said the ANPR must have not worked - well fix it.”
“The booking, check-in and return process for FastPark are all great and no issues there. As I have an electric car thar unfortunately doesn't have a very long range I specifically made sure to leave the car with sufficient charge for my drive home on return from holiday, however when I got back the battery was down at least 20% meaning I needed to top up charge again. I appreciate the vehicle needs to be moved and temperatures were low so no doubt the air conditioning system was used for defrosting the windscreen (as the fans were at max heat and level 7 when I got back in the car) but this made what should have been a seamless end to our holiday anything but!”

“The car park is great, but the signs to get into it are not. I found it hard to notice the grey colour in amongst all the other bright colours for the other parking areas. Greyed out is usually something not to be bothered with. Please change the colour or the font on the signs.”
Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that you found the car park great, but we're sorry to learn about the difficulties you faced with the signage. We will pass your feedback onto the relevant team for review.

Hi there,
Thanks for your review.
The trolley charge was introduced on 1st July 2024. The charge supports the 10 dedicated staff we have, who work continuously across each day to provide our customers with a trolley at the right time and at the right place. Though the trolley charge is new to Edinburgh Airport, many airports across the UK, Europe and the rest of the world have introduced a trolley charge in recent years.

“Good service ..however staff seem to help grudgingly ..all I ask is if I am polite that you be polite back, and no idea why the radio stations in my car all had to be changed ??”
“5.30 am till 9.30 pm parking in multi story right next to the terminal for £30 including free fast track through security for up to five passengers is reasonable value for a red eye flight.”
Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear you found the parking rates reasonable, especially with the added benefit of FastTrack Security.

“Sadly, and it took me some time to find the correct entrace to the Multi Storey car park...there could be better signposting.... When I returned after my five days, the system demanded a payment of £225.00 which was a surprise since I had already prepaid £100 for the 5 day service. Disappointing that you dont have functioning systems that can read tickets accurately, and If I was an overseas visitor and not familiar with English or the systems I might just have paid it to get out. As it was I pressed the buzzer and spoke to someone who sorted it, but I heard him say " its done that again" . You could do better.”
Thank you for your review. It sounds as though our automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system hasn't registered you upon entry. When this occurs, it means our system doesn't match you to your booking and you are then charged the roll-up rate in error upon exit and I understand the frustration that it causes. I'm glad you managed to get it sorted at the time.
Kind regards,
