Problems at MAN this morning?
Difficult to understand why the inbound Ryanair aircraft, with engineers and equipment on board, was refused some priority (If this really is what happened).
Surely the expeditious removal of the disabled aircraft, blocking the runway, was in everybody's best interest?

SS Hi,
Possibly by keeping everyone waiting a couple of hours longer, the Duty free and all those MANKIE food bars were full of thirsty, hungry and tired out pax who knew nothing of what was going on, Bet Manplc made a mint that day!

Ryanair have 6 [I think] rotations per day, EGCC-EIDW not two.
Requesting priority inbound clearance...I "honestly" don't know BUT I don't think that they asked.
Why the a/c wasn't moved earier, we too in ATC have a "rumour mill", which [of course]is good for a giggle. However we will wait for the AAIB report to find the facts....boring, I know.
As to the food situation, I didn't find any probs a BK [and Harry's wasnt THAT busy]
we aim to please, it keeps the cleaners happy
