MAN 5 years on
Made a quick business day trip from LHR to MAN yesterday, first time there in 5 years and what a change. T3 is like arriving and departing from a third world airport, upstairs then downstairs, dark dirty passageways, escalators not working, strange security gates, hand written signs, even the lift to the BA lounge has broken glass held together with black tape. If the rest of the airport is like T3 its not surprising that the likes of SQ would pull out. Just 20 people on the outbound but a good load inbound. How sad to see a once good airport in this condition - more like a bus station. Arriving back at T5 was a joy as ever, a world class facility.
