Full list of Manchester Airport delayed and cancelled flights, Friday July 31

Thousands of passengers jet off from the airport each day

Now that the summer holidays are well underway millions of people will be jetting off abroad to make the most of the school break.

This year Manchester Airport is expecting its busiest summer on record, with 5.7million passengers set to pass through the travel hub in the coming weeks. Those who fly from the airport will benefit from the changes made as part of the airport’s £1.5billion transformation programme, which is set to wrap up later this year.

Terminal 2 has been renovated and extended, with new additions including the Great Northern Market, a foodhall-style eating spot where diners can choose from a range of kitchens serving up pizza, Greek food and more. Meanwhile in the Boutique Mall area passengers can browse luxury retailers like Coach, Reiss, Jo Malone and Tom Ford.

Passengers flying from Terminal 3, which now only serves Ryanair, can visit the new sports bar, Sporting Chance, which has more than 500 seats. Work is still underway to expand Terminal 3, using space from Terminal 1 which has closed.

Those flying in the next few days are urged to plan their journey to the airport carefully as Metrolink maintenance works are still underway, lasting until August 2. This means there are no trams running through the city centre, and no trams operating on the Altrincham, Eccles and Trafford Park lines, while the East Didsbury and Airport lines terminate at Firswood. Instead, passengers can use tram replacement buses. These will be operating between Exchange Square and Rochdale, between Bury and Piccadilly, and between Piccadilly and Ashton-under-Lyne.
