Between arrival at EDI and the next report time, a well-run Edinburgh layover is about one thing: quality recovery. Aircrew Travel plans Edinburgh layovers around the crew, not the other way round.
Protecting the rest window
Strategic napping and light exposure help crews cope with the window of circadian low after landing in Edinburgh. Aircrew Travel pairs fast transfers with quiet rooms so sleep can start sooner.
Beating jet lag in Edinburgh
Beyond sleep, hydration, light meals and gentle movement help crews feel human again in Edinburgh. Properties with a gym, healthy dining and daylight access make a measurable difference.
- Get natural daylight at the right local time to shift the body clock
- Stay hydrated and keep late meals light
- Keep the room dark and cool to lengthen usable sleep in Edinburgh
- Use short naps strategically rather than one long, mistimed sleep
Staying safe and on schedule
Personal safety and predictable logistics let crews actually switch off in Edinburgh. Dedicated transfers from EDI, briefed drivers and vetted hotels remove the friction that keeps crews on edge.
