Flight from Manchester to Spain jets off without ANY of its luggage - and passengers STILL don't know when they'll get their bags

Passengers flying from Manchester to Spain have been left high and dry without their luggage — after an ENTIRE flight’s worth of baggage was left behind in the UK.

The Iberia Express flight to Madrid on Sunday (September 11) jetted off from Manchester Airport without any bags, the airline says, due to ‘the lack of handling agents from our handling provider’. However, three days on from landing in the Spanish capital, passengers the Manchester Evening News spoke to say they still don’t have their belongings.

Now, Iberia Express says the bags will be on Wednesday’s flight — but sun-seekers still don’t know exactly when they will be reunited with their possessions, the M.E.N. understands. To make matters worse, some have been on a merry-go-round of customer service phone calls, bounced from operator to operator.
