Huge delays at Manchester Airport are set to last for weeks, likely into the Easter break and beyond, a councillor who has met with terminal bosses said.
The airport, which is the biggest in the north of England and has a direct rail link to Newcastle, is the scene of ongoing "mayhem", as Manchester Evening News puts it, with lengthy security queues, flight delays and stressed baggage handlers.
The disruption continues. Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is expected to meet today with bosses at the airport, which is partly owned by 10 councils across Greater Manchester, including Manchester Council, who hold the biggest stake, reports MEN.
