This is more of an indication of the shambolic infrastructure of this embarassment of a country we live in as much as anything else.
(Edit - if you ever read their minutes, you see that they do talk about what people complain about, but usually in a very British way i.e. well after the horse has bolted!)

A380 @ Man
Just to hopefully end some confusion: This from the airport press office
Hopefully the weather will be ok.
A380’s appearances in the North West are scheduled to take place consecutively between 1pm and 2pm on the day. They comprise a ‘flypast’ (an ‘approach and go-around’) at both Manchester and Liverpool airports

Please MANCHESTER Airport Authority, fix the leaks in the many places about the airport, the buckets are not a fix and they are a hazard as well as unprofessional, or is it more important to sell duty free than actually provide passengers with a relaxed, safe and clean environment. Its not as if it only rains once in a while in Manchester. The new duty free in T1 is a disgrace, if your shoes are wet then walking on the shiny tiles is very slippery and there is no path to circumvent going through the crowds of shoppers mulling around in duty free - some of us just want to get on a flight and go 
If Heathrow needs sorting out Manchester isnt far behind on passenger comfort. Surely Airport managers have been to Singapore and can appreciate how a real airport is run!

IB's return would be great, but they would need an early departure in order to make full use of transfer traffic through MAD. Anything leaving MAN later than 0630 would be useless. A nightstop would be required.

Does anyone know for certain that they are dropping MAD and LIS for winter
The website is unclear as to whether all winter flights are on sale.
One part says all flights on sale whereas another says look out for further flights.
Also looking at the situation for MAN there are at lot of gaps in the timetable which could be filled with more flights

A simple Terminal question.
My mother needs to transit at MAN in September with some 2.75 hours between scheduled FlyBe arrival and departure. Which terminal do they use? It looks as if I will not be able to escort and so want to get her to use one of the lounges and hope that they do a Pay-Per-Visit??
Also, since she will be using the wheelchair (she is 82) might that be a problem? I presume that one wheelchair operative can deliver her to the lounge and then another come to collect her?
Many thanks.

A380 - Man
Saw the 'beast' A380 at MAN today. A tight approach with gear down and a late go-round, fly-past and a wiggle of the wings on the climb-out.
Some things struck me; the aircraft is huge, especially when compared with the Air China 744 that landed ahead; the aircraft is incredibly ugly; but so very very quiet.
Look forward to the EK ops in 2010, assuming the Pier C work is completed in time.
