Edinburgh Airport (http://www.edinburghairpo...) EDI is the most convenient airport for most of Fife. Edinburgh airport is well served from across the UK and some European cities by the likes of BA, BMI, easyJet, flyglobespan, flybe, Scotairways, Lufthansa, Air France and KLM, and now also has direct flights to the USA with Delta and Continental. There's a bus service 747 line (http://www.airdirect747.com/) direct to Inverkeithing from the airport, where you can change for another bus or for the train. It takes from 25 to 45 minutes depending on the traffic. Fares are £4.50 single or "day return", half for children. Otherwise, get the bus/taxi into Edinburgh and catch the train from Haymarket or Waverley. You could of course also hire a car.
