New Manchester Airport boss says the traffic chaos over the past months is 'behind us'

Manchester Airport's new boss has said the travel chaos holidaymakers have seen over the past few months are 'behind us'. Managing director Chris Woodroofe has admitted customers suffered a 'poor' experience when flying from the airport.

The new boss has warned that passengers to Manchester Airport will be asked to arrive three hours before departure and queues over peak-times will continue this summer. Mr Woodroofe has vowed to ‘get passengers on their way’ as they head through the holiday season.

Manchester Evening News reports that the new director is realistic about the challenges in front of him. Speaking to the Manchester paper just 11 days into the job, the former Gatwick boss looked to brighter times ahead.
