Manchester Exile dont expect anything nice on return with EK, business or economy you will all be dumped together to walk the old pier B (Terminal 1) into the immigration Qs, Business class need pre booked fast track to get a smooth pass.
Dubai terminals are class, EK A380s are class, step off into Manchester terminal 1 what an embarrassment. The contrast could not be any more extreme.
Regardless I will continue to use Manchester, despite its shortcomings its still my airport, I just wish there was an instant solution to the problems, realistically it will take time, we dont have the Billions of the Middle East, but we do have plans to move forward with ongoing additions to T2. There are many airports within the UK that can only dream of what we have.
