The 7M8 is doing a Alicante on Sunday morning also. Looking at the schedule there seems to be 15 based Ryanair departures before 8.35am. There is a palma at 7.55am that’s not on the Ryanair website as according to that the first Palma is at 10am. So does seem to be an increase in based units
easyJet to INV looks to be a new route from the ACL report as well. Not for sale yet but in the schedule on the airport website from the 27th June. Hope it goes on sale soon!

As per the ACL summer report, Emerald and Logan air holding slots for ZZJ (unspecified destination) - Any ideas as to where these may be ?. At a guess, I'd say EDI for Logan but not sure what's left in Eire that's not up against RYR.

Can anybody tell me why there is a Fast Track line for Immigration Control in T1 but not one in T2 ? Mrs Mac came through at 24.00 Friday and due to having Fast Track was back home in Yorkshire by 13.30 as she avoided some substantial lines.
Cheers
Mr Mac

I flew Ryanair back from Dublin the other night and after getting the stupid coach to take us to arrivals they wanted to check our passports as we went into the terminal! When did this start? Also now T3 has reopened at least it’s a quick walk through the doors and into the baggage reclaim!

"Immigration control reserve the right to perform passport checks as and when required usually acting on intelligence"
Immigration control & intelligence in the same sentence!! things must be changing..............

It's been another bad couple of days for passengers. Over an hour and a half to get through security in T1 last night, and just as bad in T2 this morning with queues back into check-in.

It seems that alarm bells have started to ring at Manchester City Council with the airport's reputation "nosediving" . Hopefully this might prompt some action to improve the management and forward planning of the airport.

A spokesman apologised for the recent troubles but said "it takes a while to give the new security operatives the training they need to meet the unique Manchester standards of aggressiveness and unhelpfulness". "In the meantime we are working with consultants from British Airways on changes to be made to organisation and customer relations"
