Manchester Airport has issued a fresh warning to passengers travelling over Christmas and New Year amid the start of Border Force strikes.
Members of the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union employed by the Home Office to operate passport booths walked out on Friday at Manchester Airport.
The Border Force strikes will take place every day for the rest of the year, except December 27. Travellers were warned to expect delays amid fears that long queues at passport control could lead to people being held on planes, disrupting subsequent departures.
