Manchester Airport's managing director vowed to put the travel chaos of last year behind them.
During the summer, Manchester airport was at the forefront of chaos as thousands of travellers had their journeys severely impacted by delays, cancellations or poor planning. Images surfaced of hundreds of bags being left behind in favour of getting through the process sooner along with snaking lines stretching from the check-in desk right out to the back of their carparks.
Several members of senior staff left their posts amid mounting pressure. The current managing director of Manchester Airport, Chris Woodroofe, has promised holidaymakers a very different summer experience next year.
