Hundreds of passengers flying from Manchester Airport over the last few days as the May half-term holidays get underway have been faced with long delays, queues and cancelled flights.
The recent scenes echo similar issues at the airport in the last few months as airlines, operators and other businesses try to get back on their feet as a result of the pandemic. But with many passengers now warning they will no longer travel abroad if such issues continue, there are big questions to be answered about the state of travel in 2022.
Over the weekend, many passengers for TUI flights departing from Manchester Airport’s T2 were met with long queues for bag-drop, sometimes extending past the Sky Lounge and towards the entrance to terminal one.
