Manchester Airport passengers are still reporting long waits in security and check-in desk following boss Charlie Cornish prediction that there would be ‘60-90-minute’ queues.
Passengers took to social media claiming queues for check-in with airlines and then security came to a combined four hours in some cases. However, Manchester Airport have said queues in T1 were in fact no longer than 90 minutes on Tuesday morning - with additional delays at check-in the responsibility of airlines and their handling agents, reports Manchester Evening News.
Images of crowded terminals and lines snaking on to the tarmac outside are now a familiar feature of peak-time journeys through Manchester Airport. Ongoing complaints follow an open letter of apology penned last month by Charlie Cornish, chief executive of Manchester Airports Group (MAG), which runs Manchester as well as Stansted and East Midlands.
