Passengers flying from Manchester Airport face long queues and delays this week as the Easter holidays get underway. Disruptions at the airport, caused by staff shortages and high demand, have left many travellers stranded and unable to get to their desired destination on time.
The chaos came as Easyjet cancelled a wave of UK flights due to staff sickness. Over the weekend, the airline axed at least 222 flights across Saturday and Sunday with some holidaymakers reporting they were stuck abroad with no explanation or alternative route home.
Manchester Airport has asked people to arrive for flights at the earliest possible time the airline allows, and warned that the disruption could last for weeks as passenger numbers grow.
