Manchester Airport 's CEO Charlie Cornish has issued a statement today addressing the disruption, explaining some of the key factors causing the chaos as he apologised to holidaymakers.
Passengers have been facing some chaotic scenes this week with huge queues and delays after Covid has caused staff shortages at the terminal.
At the start of the week some holidaymakers reported facing waits of up to four hours, and local council workers were brought in to try and help manage the havoc.
