Passengers at Manchester Airport battled huge queues again this morning. Lines stretched out of the Terminal 3 and into the car park from 4am.
The queues continued well into the morning at the only recently reopened terminal, with one passenger in the line calling the airports recent woes 'embarrassing'.

Passengers took pictures and videos to share with people in group chats and social media, and laughed with those around them about the nature of having to queue in a car park. One couple who joined the car park queue at the same time as me said: "We got here early as we've seen
