Just a little vent at Manchester Airport and a message to make you guys aware of the situation we're facing most days now regarding drop offs but mainly pick ups.
In their wisdom and to streamline their operation (ie. save money) they decided to do away with T1 and move everything into T2.
You really don't need to be very bright to realise that by doing so, literally twice the volume of traffic is now entering T2 and using the same infrastructure, it was always going to be a recipe for disaster!
At busy periods we can experience queues getting into the drop off zones, but the real issue is the "express" pick up zone. When it's busy it's horrific just trying to get to it, let alone finding a space and your customers. Quite often it takes us 20-30 minutes just to get to the terminal! 🤯
We totally understand that once you have your luggage you just want to get home and don't want to be stood around waiting for your taxi, and as always we will try our utmost to be there promptly for you.
This is obviously totally out of our control but to help us to get to you quicker please let your driver know the minute you've collected your luggage so we can start making our way around to you 🙏
Thank you for your patience and understanding! 😊
