Connectivity ex Manchester appears to be a highly valid point.
Counting up the domestic and dare I say Irish destinations, it serves 2.5 times the number of UK domestic points (and almost 3 times the Heathrow figure if you include Ireland) but fails to actually tell anybody that matters !
Until I counted I didn't realise this !
Ask our Westminster MPs who all "thoroughly briefed on Heathrow" but probably believe Manchester is just another "small" airport.
Heathrow is an airport for London.
Manchester appears to be growing rapidily into an airport for the UK as a whole.
