Went out of MAN last week to Dusseldorf gate 8. RYR was out of Gate 7. Was hilarious to see the antics of ground staff going through all the so called carry on baggage, which btw I do believe in limiting it. No change for customers and going around asking if anyone had two fivers for a ten all the time.
That leg of T1 is far too narrow when flights are leaving from opposite gates, couple that to more passengers trying to get through to gates further down the leg makes it even worse.Limited seating as well.
Manchester is slowly treating SLF as rubbish...it can't go on if it truly wants to survive. Couple that with the walkways being cut back on is moving backwards not forwards.
