It would be great if we could just drop this tedious debate about diversions or no diversions. Like the diversions themselves, it is going nowhere! There is so much that's exciting and positive going on at MAN at the moment which does get talked about, thank God. Every airport has a role, Manchester's is to provide the North of England with a fantastic choice of direct flights to an increasingly worldwide list of destinations. It does so from a relatively small patch of real estate, of which it makes good use. That helps keep fees and charges competitive. The UK has lots of airports - too many one might say, and so there will usually be somewhere for a diverted flight to land, if not so convenient.
