To be fair to Manchester - they haven't half come out of this with a big thumbs up from many an operator, some not even serving the airport.
I don't understand, come out of what well??? We had about half an inch of snow during this period, to compare to what LHR and LGW had is an insult, they had 20 cms of the white stuff. The beeb and most of the pro Manchester brigade are all jumping up and down saying how well Manchester has coped as opposed to the others, but we didn't have anything like what they had.
If you want to sit there and honestly defend the diversion notams that we issue with such ease then so be it.
I personally think they are a joke, each to their own.
