Granton’s waterfront redevelopment and older streets sit further out from the centre, so a driver who knows the shortest way to the bypass makes a real difference. Get Ryde sends local, licensed drivers who take you out of Granton without wasted mileage or unnecessary detours. On top of Edinburgh Airport, we also handle transfers to Glasgow Airport, Prestwick International Airport, Newcastle International Airport, Heathrow Airport, Manchester Airport, and Birmingham Airport. We reach into Newhaven, Trinity, Inverleith, Stockbridge, and Canonmills too.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do drivers pick up from the newer waterfront flats in Granton?
Yes, drivers cover both the newer waterfront developments and the older streets further back from the shore without any trouble finding either one. Since Granton sits a bit further from the centre, our team plans the route in advance so nothing is left to guesswork on the day.
What if my flight lands earlier or later than what I originally booked for?
Once your flight is linked to the booking, we track it ourselves and adjust the pickup time automatically to match any change. You will not need to phone ahead or update anything yourself, since the system takes care of it in the background.
Does travelling with extra luggage add anything to the fare?
No, the price you are quoted already accounts for luggage handling regardless of how many bags you bring along. Drivers help load and unload everything as a normal part of the pickup, with nothing added afterward.
What checks do drivers go through before they can take bookings?
Every driver working with Get Ryde completes a licensing process along with a background check before being cleared to accept rides. This step applies to everyone on our books, without exception, so passengers can travel with confidence.
