Edinburgh to Leon

I'd like to walk The Camino in July next year. I'm an Aussie with a wedding to attend in Edinburgh. After posting the heels back my backpack will be ready for the Camino. I just need to know how to get to Leon. Can anyone help? Thank you so much in advance!
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Leon is best accessed by bus or train; it is poorly connected by air. EasyJet goes from Edinburgh to Madrid. Renfe trains Madrid to Leon vary from 2.5 to 4.5 hours but service is frequent. Alsa operates buses direct from T4 Barajas airport (MAD) to Leon that take about 5 hours.

There are other airports that might work. There are lots of buses and trains that will connect; the problem will be frequency of flights. Here is Aena airport network.
