Travellers using Manchester Airport could face long queues for 'several weeks'.
Bosses have admitted they are struggling with staff shortages after an increase in international travel since the coronavirus pandemic. Manchester Airport is about to start a major recruitment drive to help solve the problem, that has seen people queue for more than three hours to make it through security.
However, Karen Smart, the managing director of Manchester Airport, claims the recruitment drive could take weeks to remedy the crisis. Current staff are also struggling with the workload, with one employee telling the MEN things are 'diabolical' due to them being understaffed.
