Barrow-in-Furness to and from Edinburgh Airport

Travelling from Barrow-in-Furness To and From Edinburgh Airport is a well-connected journey, ideal for business travellers, families, cruise passengers, international tourists, and students heading to or from Scotland’s capital. The route spans around 187 miles (301 kilometres) and typically takes 3.5 to 3.75 hours in normal traffic conditions. 

The most efficient option follows the A590 eastbound to join the M6 north, continuing into Scotland. Near Abington, merge onto the M74, then transition to the M8 eastbound toward Edinburgh. Exit at Junction 1 and follow the A8 (Glasgow Road) straight to Edinburgh Airport.

Travellers preferring scenic drives may opt for the A595 and A66 route to reach the M6, joining the same motorway connections further north. This option is ideal when there’s congestion on the A590 or during tourism seasons. During peak hours—particularly near Glasgow and Edinburgh—it’s advisable to allow an extra 30–45 minutes.
