Passengers at Manchester Airport are facing travel chaos as all flights departing are either being cancelled or having severe delays after a power cut in the local area
Holidaymakers are stuck in travel chaos as all flights departing from Manchester Airport are cancelled or severely delayed following a power cut.
It has prompted outrage among passengers who took to social media to vent their frustration. One person wrote at 6.35am: "We've been stood for over an hour and a half in the same spot as we we're before, still being told that "normal services will resume ASAP" our flight leaves at 10 past 7!!"Another stated: "Utter disgrace, the airport should have back up systems / generators for this sort of scenario. Expect the unexpected.
Meanwhile, airlines will organise any onward journey for those whose flights are cancelled, added the airport. "Passengers due to fly from Terminal 3 should come to the airport as normal unless advised otherwise by their airline, but could be affected by delays," Manchester Airport advised.
