Freight unlike PAX doesn't really care where it flies from, long road journeys at the beginning and end of a cargo flight is completely normal, thats why hundreds of wagons leave consolidation warehouses all over the North every week and head for East Midlands, Stansted, Heathrow, Amsterdam, Leige and countless other air freight hubs. It is no longer Manchester's business model to handle dedicated freighters.
It will be interesting to see what happens to the UK - China airbridge flights once we no longer need vast quantities of PPE and the growing trend of not buying Chinese goods kicks in
