A new direct bus service that takes passengers from Edinburgh to Heathrow Airport will launch next week in a bid to provide an affordable alternative when travelling to the UK’s busiest airport.

    I priced it out of curiosity:
    One way direct from LHR to Edinburgh was about £50, with an extra £40 for a second seat, and £4 for the best seats at the front.
    Honestly, I’d pay an extra £4 for a good seat on a 10 hour drive.

    Obviously only £50 if you are willing to gamble on your seatmate not smelling of cheese or something.

    For comparison, a flight from LHR to EDI on BA is about £120 on the same day, and takes 90 mins.
