Edinburgh Airport is the second best performing airport in the British Airports Authority UK portfolio and far and away the best performing of their 3 Scottish airports. The reasons are that Edinburgh is the centre of the Scottish legal system, financial system and administration. The advent of the reconvened devolved Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh last year following nearly 300 years of rule from London has added to the city's vibrancy and further fuelled the remarkable economic boom currently in progress. In 1992 / 93, Edinburgh Airport handled 2.56 million passengers and was regarded as a sleepy, provincial operation. She is currently handling 6.3 million and is no longer a sleepy provincial but a confident International player that has seen remarkable growth. Current growth for passenger traffic is 11.5% and accelerating. This compares very favourably with Glasgow Airport which has current passenger growth of 4.5% and declining. A remarkably similar story can be told for air transport movements [atms] with Edinburgh Airport now ahead of Glasgow in terms of atms handled, Edinburgh Airport handles more scheduled pax than rival GLA.
