British Airways Lounge, EDI

At a glance

One of four lounges in Main Terminal, and the best-rated of them. An airline lounge with room to get work done in peace, food and drink worth arriving early for, and coffee made by a person rather than a button. It seats around 100 and leaves drinks self-serve. Hours are 5 AM – 8:30 PM daily. It was last refreshed in 2023. A lounge you'd be glad to have time in. Recorded access options include Galleries Lounge and oneworld Sapphire/Emerald Lounge Access. Entry conditions and availability apply.
