Have fun at the airport

If you have found yourself with a layover (短暂停留) at Edinburgh Airport, you may be

wondering what to do with your time.

Hang out in the lounge (休息室)

An airport lounge might be just what you need during your layover – a one-stop shop for

simple food, drinks, solid WiFi, and comfortable seating. Luckily, two airport lounges are

provided for every traveler, no matter your airline or class flown. Simply pre-book a visit online

or use your lounge membership program to get lounge access.

Treat yourself

You’ve got the time, so why not treat yourself? The Aero Spa (open daily) offers beauty

treatments, including hair styling and facials, plus massage services to work out the pain in your

neck from your last flight.

Look at some art

Head to Gate 13 to browse the airport’s art gallery, which changes exhibits by Scottish

artists. Some of the paintings are even up for sale.

Airport hotels

If sleeping in Edinburgh Airport does not appeal to you, there are some hotels near the

airport:

◎DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Edinburgh Airport – (7 minute walk or 2 minute drive from

the airport) A free airport shuttle leaves from the airport terminal (stance 2) every 15 minutes

between 3:00 AM to 10:00 AM.

◎Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport – (12 minute walk or 5 minute drive from the

airport) An airport shuttle bus runs to and from the airport. Single tickets ( ￡1) and return

tickets (￡2) are available.

◎Premier Inn Edinburgh Airport – (20 minute walk or 8 minute drive from the airport)

The airport shuttle bus is ￡1.50 single and ￡3 return.

◎Ibis Budget Hotel Edinburgh Park – (6 minutes from the airport) No airport shuttle.

◎Observe the airport traffic

Aviation fans can watch the traffic come and go on the runway. Head to the cafes or

restaurants near Gate 12 for the best views.

◎Check out Edinburgh

If you have a layover of at least 5 hours, you’ll have enough time to check out Edinburgh

itself.

Check your bags in the arrival area and head to the bus or tram to get into the city. The

Airport Link 100 bus leaves every 10 minutes and takes about 30 minutes to reach Waverley

Bridge. Edinburgh trams leave every 7 minutes and take about 30 minutes as well. You can

purchase one-way fare or a discounted round-trip.

For some students, their major may serve as a path to a lifelong career. For others, their

major only represents a transient academic interest.

According to a recent career survey released by Beijing Municipal Commission of

Education, about 45 percent of graduate students work in an area unrelated to their major.

When they first started university, only 25 percent of them were satisfied with their major,

while 17 percent were unsatisfied with their curriculum.

Cao Xuelin, 27, an online game designer at Tencent Technology Co., Ltd. studied a purely

theoretic discipline but now finds himself working in a very pragmatic industry.

"I studied mathematics at university, not computer science, but I began to work as a

software designer after my graduation," said Cao, who initially thought he would become a

math teacher or work for a research institute.

It is difficult finding a job relating to a specific major, especially when your major is

regarded as highly "impractical". In fact, many of Cao’s classmates became finance analysts or

even work in public relations.

"Assuming a job has to be tied directly to your major is a very old-fashioned way of

thinking. Employer’s attitudes have changed completely," said Wang Xiaojun, HR director at

General Electric Company." Knowledge, adaptability, practical work experience and the ability

to analyze from a well-rounded perspective are more important to employers than your

majors."

Sometimes, when you engage in a different field of work, you may not even realize how

much your college major is helping you. Chen Juan, 24, a psychology major from Beijing

Normal University, now works for Ogilvy & Mather Advertising as a project manager.

"Psychology helps a lot at work because my current job involves a lot of consumer strategy.

It also requires the ability to do research and data analysis, which I gained during my studies,"
