Not fond of the route into the Airport, can get kinda confusing. How about a route into the terminal then arrivals and departures. T2 is perhaps the easiest to navigate.
Free wifi, lots of parking options and plenty of food and drink options in each terminal
Nice selection of restaurants and the shops aren't overbearing.
Terminal 1 power points to charge your phone/plug in your laptop are by Voyager where the disabled seats are.
Frederic NuyttensDecember 3, 2014Joe's kitchen And coffee house is Great ! Try the camembert berry burger !
Security is a shambles. X-ray stops every second bag for manual search resulting in everyone waiting in a queue for their bag to be searched at a snails pace. 30 mins it took.
Seamus McQuillanFebruary 21, 2022Go early to get by the security checks, not very well organized at all.
S Gary FieldhouseSeptember 29, 2013Try the bar at Giraffe - T1 - service is excellent and the prices are ok as well!
Pret A Manger is much cheaper than Starbucks and the coffee is excellent
Get here early. Even getting there 2 hours in advance doesn't guarantee you won't be running for your plane anymore!
Eugene SinkeviciOctober 6, 2014Very long walk with three lifts on the way from train station to Terminal 3- Pre-pay for your taxi with Airport Taxis outside arrivals as it's a set fare & loads cheaper than a Hackney cab!
The new capital has a fine landing port, and is able to host some of the largest aether ships in the world. Her Majesty has her own terminal.
Shauna LawhorneNovember 8, 2010When passing by Olympic House make sure to find and pet Olly, a super sweet, and apparently quite famous, orange and white cat. Love her!
The most greedy airport. Beware: Trolleys take coins but you won't get them back. You have to pay stg1 for Plastic bags for Liquids do when you're in London stock up on them if you use them.
JennersJanuary 8, 2019£3 fee for dropping off outsider Terminal 3. There is a free drop-off zone without shuttle buses to alleviate traffic and £££.
A lot of building and development going on here at the moment but some care and attention to the existing toilets should be made first...they are truly disgusting and shameful in places.
Håkan FJanuary 14, 2019Not much good to say about this airport really, its not far from bottom of my list, and I have seen a few. Security is the absolut worst i have experienced .......
4sq North West EnglandAugust 6, 2011Welcome to Manchester! Head to the railway station for frequent trains to the city centre as well as other destinations around the north of England.
Natalia KędzioraApril 11, 2015Loads of places to eat and shop. Some gates require a pretty long walk.
Haya AlsabahJanuary 19, 2013Go after bizza duty free and you will find more shops and cafes ! Dont like this design of the airport ! You should go through the duty free to reach your gate!
Get the fast pass through security in order to spend less time in this terrible airport.
Changed the entrance to t1 multi storey . Drive through the drop off and turn right at the end (up ramp). Round the corner are the barriers.
Security was a complete chaos. People crammed together, being pushed through the isles like cattle. My most stressful airport experience yet.
Use the valet parking option. More than off site but much cheaper than the on airport long stay and great service. Car waiting upon your return.
Massively improved since Terminal 2 extension opened in 2019.
Darth ZannahJuly 24, 2017Worst airport in Europe I can remember. Narrow passages, absolutely no place at the Checkin desks on Terminal 1, people squeezed like chicken in a cage. Try to avoid, if you can.
The BA lounge is pretty good to get away from the tourist travellers.
Spyros TheodoritsisNovember 12, 2021Check your gate at the airport website an hour before it's announced on the board.
Definitely the airport with the rudest security operatorsUpvoted Mar 25
Tom RiesNovember 18, 2011Smoking area is on level 2. Just take the escalator and follow the sing. Btw: It's an outside area - take you coat with you.
Avoid this place like the plague. Worst airport in the civilized world, and there are probably better airports in the African jungle as well.Upvoted Mar 25
Ben O'HaraJune 4, 2011If you can, check in online before you get here. Saves loads of time queueing.
Jeffrey-Ryan B.October 21, 2013Many non-stop domestic flights and many international flights from outside the UK and a 1h 15m flight to London Heathrow daily several times a day
Anton MavrinAugust 18, 2018This airport URGENTLY NEEDS ⚒RENOVATION🛠! C’mon, guys! Start doing instead of talking!
The Starbucks also has a couple of plug sockets by the bench seats
Martins DejusNovember 17, 2017Not very easy to find things here. Buses to car parks and car rentals God only knows what time they are running.- Ritchy MarcelFebruary 7, 2018Warning: when passing security, they have put the metal things back in my bag. I had to wait 25 and 35 minutes before they could inspect my bag. I reported this to the airport. REDICULOUS!!!!
sit in the bar + laugh at all the people who are late doing the 'dad run' to catch their flight.. Priceless!
Wtf? You have to pay for a trolley? Come on MAN!
Good one! Tower road is the place which you get the shuttle buses!
