Manchester Airport travel hell as despairing passengers describe chaotic scenes

The travel chaos is continuing at Manchester Airport with passengers claiming they waited three hours for luggage and struggled to navigate lengthy queues - with some travellers have received messages from tour operator TUI stating breaks had been cancelled.

Angry passengers who had planned to getaway ahead of half-term and Bank Holiday weekend have been tweeting about their experience at the troubled travel hub. This comes amid ongoing tales from travellers of missing luggage, holiday cancellations and mammoth flight delays, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Jaymeleigh McCarroll described the scenes in baggage reclaim early this morning as an 'absolute mess' with luggage left abandoned on the floor. At around 2.30am, @RuinousHugh said he had been waiting for two hours to collect his bags from Terminal 1. "Why the hell can't you sort this out?", he tweeted Manchester Airport.
