The unfolding mayhem at Manchester Airport is down to a 'failure of management' and could continue for WEEKS - even into the summer - a Manchester councillor has said. The criticisms come after the M.E.N. reported huge security queues and hours of flight delays, passengers abandoning their suitcases after waiting long enough and baggage handlers who are ‘under more stress than ever’.
Councillor Pat Karney met with airport bosses yesterday, slamming the scenes of 'chaos' and saying that the airport's reputation is 'nosediving' as hundreds of passengers crowd check-in, security and baggage claim halls alike. Huge delays have been plaguing the hub, which is partially owned by Manchester City Council, throughout March.
On April 1, a shocking video emerged showing passengers jostling for space as they go through security checks has prompted concerns that 'someone will get hurt'. Fellow travellers then came forward to tell the Manchester Evening News of the 'carnage' ongoing at the airport.
