Manchester Airport is 'running as normal' but will be busier than usual, a spokesperson has said. Thousands remained affected on Monday morning.
Disruption and long queues continued at Manchester Airport after a major power cut grounded all flights from two terminals. The airport issued a statement on Monday morning saying that operations were back up and running and urged passengers to 'prepare to travel as usual'. But thousands remained affected early on Monday, with some waiting for alternative flights and others who managed to take off finding their luggage was not put on the plane.
No flights left from two of the three terminals for several hours, causing huge queues and a failure of baggage systems. In a message to passengers, Jet2.com said some flights departed with 'reduced or no luggage', as the baggage system was 'inoperable' during the outage. It may take 'some time' to get luggage back to owners, they added. The disruption meant a number of arriving flights were diverted to other airports.
