Early morning transportation to airport in Edinburgh

Quick question. My flight home starts from Edinburgh at 6 in the morning. It's a flight to Amsterdam where I'll catch my connection home. I'm planning to be at the airport by 5 am at the latest. Is there easy transportation to the airport at 4 in the morning on a Saturday or am I better off switching from a B&B to a hotel closer to the airport, perhaps one with a shuttle?

Thanks!

the airlink bust starts jsut before 5.00am but would be too late for you.

just been looking at the Airlink times and the first one is at 4.20am to the airport so that should get you there about 4.45am.

Perfect! Thanks so much for the info and links unclegus.

I'm planning to stay at the 14 Hart Street B&B. If I understand correctly, it's fairly close to Waverly Train station so the bus should work out great.

It is less than a 10 minute walk from Waverley but in a really nice and popular area,loads of bars,cafes and resturants nearby and the huge Omni entertainment center and Playhouse theatre a few minutes walk away.
