I have used the Manchester Airport several times and I think it's very good. Checking in providing you arrive nice and early is very easy, and boarding is quite straightforward. The airport is accessible and has good motorway links but be sure to take the correct terminal, as there are two.
Inside, the airport can often be packed but it's very clean and that's one thing you like. The toilets I have to say are immaculate.......a point worth noting because I have seem some awful lavatories in airports.
It has a good car park facility but you will need a ticket which costs from anything from £1.50-£3.50 depending on how long you're staying, that's if you're picking up friends or family of course.
There's a lot of shops to visit and you can get some good holiday items, and it's actually a really good place to do your last minute shopping. With stores like WHSmith's where you can buy all your magazines and crisps from to Boots where you can get sun creams, sun glasses and a whole load more.
There's also good cafe's to have a coffee while you are waiting or departure and they even have arcade games, so remember to take some looses change. You can have your money converted at Manchester Airport in most currencies- and they give a good rate.
Don’t forget to check out HMV it’s really big and they always have a sale on, and The Body Shop is also another good shop to visit.
Overall I think Manchester Airport is really good, provides a really good service. Delays can always occur and the recent delays have not been anyone's fault in the UK except for the strikers abroad.

A good Op on MAN, however with the New Runway now up and running and the British Airways Terminal MAN has Three Terminals 1, 2 and 3(BA), and I bet not long before they look for Terminal 4...thanks for the Op it was interesting..Andrew
