Ok, here goes, I will try and reason with some of you guys:
what does having more terminals show?
________________________________
It shows that it is a major airport, with investment and many international routes and more importantly CAPACITY. Outside LHR it is the only airport with 3 terminals. It also has 2 runways. The place has the "feel" of a major airport (only my opinion).
============================
No, but it has overtaken it in terms of passenger numbers. Cold hard fact.
________________________________
Agree, cold hard fact. Although as Curious Pax says MAN have a much higher summer peak.
============================
The major long haul out of Manchester must be PIA, and looking around the Airport Jet2 seems to have more aircraft about than BA these days even BA citiexpress are cutting back aircraft at Manchester.
_______________________________
BA have made cutbacks everywhere, dont just apply to MAN.
============================
Agree very much with LGS6753 and his "Not an achievement - bribery!" post.
STN is not even in the same ball park as MAN, so whatever figures say about pax, I would refrain from such crass comparisons.
Cheers,
Rob
