Passengers arriving at Manchester Airport were once again confronted by queues for security which snaked through Terminal One, out of the doors and into the car park on Thursday morning. Following similar scenes on Wednesday evening, travellers shared pictures, and their woes, on social media as they feared missing their flights.
It's the fourth time this month the Manchester Evening News has reported on queues for either Passport Control or security after receiving complaints from readers, amid 'unpredictable' passenger levels as the industry makes a rapid recovery from Covid. The airport said that it has experienced up to 60 per cent of customer bags being rejected as they pass through security today and yesterday due to restricted items.
BBC News presenter Kelly Foran posted a video of the queue she was stuck in. "Welcome to the Manchester Airport queue for security', she said.
