Manchester Airport : Trolley charges - from 10 April 2012
You can't make this stuff up! This is a barrell of laughs to read!! The bit I like best is that they are spending a MILLION quid on these trollies and that they are FITTED WITH GPS in order that airport "management" can track them to "hot spots" so as they can better distribute their resources!
Hey guess what? I can TELL you where the hotspots are right now...
The Car Park
Departures
Arrivals
Unbelieveable. I am willing to bet they spent a fair wedge to decide to overspend for baggage trollies that quite frankly there is nothing wrong with and really probably don't need replacing in the first place!! Furthermore, they will now have to pay more people to collect the trollies as without a refund, any incentive to return them has been removed!
Best bit of it all though... The airport in their own press release even say that only 5% of passengers actually USE the damned things anyway!!
