Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Edinburgh Airport to Bilbao Airport last minute?
Booking your trip from EDI to Bilbao Airport at the last minute could save you dollars if you’re lucky to find an epic deal. However, airfares typically don’t come down in price as the date of departure nears. If you take a wait-and-see approach, flights could also be booked solid or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you’d prefer to play it safe, book well ahead of when you want to leave. Note that some of the biggest deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn’t released its fares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia constantly.

Bilbao Airport (BIO), Vitoria (VIT) and Santander Airport (SDR) are your choices when traveling from Edinburgh to Bilbao.
