Hand your keys over, walk 1 minute, you’re at EDI
Meet and Greet at Edinburgh Airport is the valet option for people trading price for sheer ease: you pull up near the terminal, hand your keys to staff, and you’re walking to check‑in in about 1 minute. It’s airport‑run official parking, so your booking ties directly to EDI rather than a third‑party operator.
This is valet parking, not a short‑stay bay. You stop in the signed drop‑off zone by the terminal, unload bags, pass the keys over, and staff move the car to a separate compound off‑site. Trustpilot reviewers call out that off‑site storage as a surprise the first time, but it’s standard practice for this product at Edinburgh.
On return, you head back to the same Meet and Greet area by the terminal and collect the car from staff within a couple of minutes’ walk of arrivals. Several Trustpilot reviews mention calling a dedicated number shortly before exiting the terminal so the team can drive the car round to the pick‑up point in time.
Complaints cluster around two things: a handful of drivers say their car came back with extra miles or slightly different fuel levels, and others report standing outside for longer than expected at pick‑up, especially after late‑evening landings around 22:00–23:30. This is the trade‑off: maximum proximity, but you’re reliant on staffing and car handling.
Regulars get defensive. They photograph the odometer and fuel gauge at drop‑off and again at pick‑up, keeping shots with the date and time for any dispute. The same people say they phone the valet desk as soon as bags hit the belt so the car is already moving by the time they reach the door.
Tip: save the Meet and Greet phone number in your contacts before you fly; calling from baggage reclaim can easily shave 5–10 minutes off your wait at the kerb.
