Until recently, there were few direct international services to Scotland, meaning many travelers would have to fly into London or Manchester and then transfer to a Scottish airport on a UK domestic flight. However, there are now a growing number of European and long haul destinations served by the five international airports in Scotland: Aberdeen Airport, Edinburgh Airport, Glasgow International Airport, Glasgow Prestwick International Airport and Inverness Airport.

By train: The three major train lines in the UK all run services to Scotland

By car: The main road linking Scotland and England is the M74 motorway which runs from south of Glasgow to Carlisle. The A1 road links Edinburgh and the North East of England; this road is single carriageway in some areas however, and not considered to be the best route into Scotland.

By bus: Bus and coach services are the cheapest way to get to Scotland, but are probably also the longest and the least comfortable. National Express is the main operator, with services from Glasgow's Buchanan Street Station, for example, to most other major UK cities.

Travel Documentation and Custom Duty: Scotland has the same immigration and visa requirements as the rest of the United Kingdom.
