The majority went on to other UK destinations, but more than 343,000 travelled overseas directly from the Scottish capital. Airport CEO Gordon Dewar said: “We enjoyed a busy March, with good performances from domestic and international carriers. “We experienced our busiest departure day ever thanks to the thousands of French rugby fans leaving Edinburgh after the Six Nations. “This proved to be a great dry run for us ahead of the busy Easter, period when we’ll no doubt see an increase in passenger numbers.”
