Here's a short report on my flight to Edinburgh and back to visit Edinburgh with my 2 sons :
First flight :

Catering was free for business passengers (first 2 rows), just a sandwich and a drink with a newspaper.
On arrival at Edinburgh airport we walked from the plane unto the tarmac (first thing I set foot in on Scottish soil was a puddle of rainwater ) to take one of 2 buses waiting to take us to the airport building. Baggage claim was fast : only a couple of minutes before my suitcase appeared.
Second flight :

Catering same as the first flight.
The usual long walk to customs and the baggage claim area, but guess what ? No damaged Luggage. First time ever at Brussels Airport ! Thanks Zaventem, and hope to see you again soon, my beloved Scotland !

Edinburgh is a wonderful airport. I was there recently (though I don't like the "live" flight arrivals and departures on their website!)
Sabena and Sobelair - gone but never forgotten.
