Peshawar International Airport is the key gateway of the culturally and historically rich Pakistani city, Peshawar. From United Kingdom, a good number of airlines operate scheduled flights connecting major cities in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland with Peshawar.
Although it is London Heathrow that perhaps offers most frequent flights to any city in Pakistan, Edinburgh in Scotland offers passengers a fairly good choice of connecting flights to travel to Peshawar as well. British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Iberia and KLM Royal Dutch are among the popular airlines departing Edinburgh Airport with connecting flights operated by their partner carriers. Some Middle Eastern airlines such Etihad and Qatar Airways, serving Peshawar via their respective hubs, make for preferred choices for travellers. Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) currently doesn’t operate from Edinburgh; nonetheless, the airline is a popular choice for connecting flights to Peshawar from Middle East destinations en route from Edinburgh.
