T3 for budget airlines like Ryanair, quite compact and small.

Terminal 2 is so nice....how have I never been through here?

The duty free is a trap, run through as fast as possible!

The security personnel are a bunch of frustrated people with dead-end jobs doing repetitive, boring tasks. Treat them accordingly.

One of the worst airports in uk. Immigration queues are just annoying. Avoid the epassport. And security checks in the way in is unorganised.
Martin WezowskiMay 17, 2013
the transfer security from US is ridiculous - today my stomach beeped in the metal detector, had to open my shirt up, he still looked suspicious. 10 peeps 30 minutes = ridiculous. I'm eating bombs

The security here is beyond belief, they don’t even try to make things work.
Trevor McLeanSeptember 23, 2013
The breakfast burrito is really spicy at Mi Casa
Grazyna OOctober 17, 2014
OK shopping for being such a small airport. You always have to take of your shoes at security... often very long waiting at security.
Jensen VanceNovember 4, 2011
Be prepared to walk the long hallways of the old and new parts of the airport as the walking paths have always seemed to be under construction or broken down.

Security checks take at least 30 minutes... Plan ahead
Adam GreenwoodJuly 14, 2011
Don't bring your own drinks, you must get rid of them before the departure lounge. Massage chairs are £1 for 3 mins.
Jelly JimJanuary 20, 2014
Use Departures for pick up - Arrivals is a nightmare to get in to!

Wifi is not as easy to get into as in Ireland but is free so can't complain 

Helpful services from customer services. Try to get some good bargain before flying off

Disappointing as ever. Usual slow border control and particularly slow baggage reclaim. It’s really poor despite the millions they spend. Anywhere on the globe is more efficient than Manchester.

This is a shit shit airport. A cm of snow and they close it. Then the air bridge doesn't work. Then the queue for passport control is a mile long. They've probably damaged my luggage too!
Pirita IhamäkiMarch 7, 2019
Services is great.

Business lounge for breakfast ! Lovely

The less hand luggage the better, reduces the wait at security
Chee LauJuly 15, 2018
This is THE WORST airport I’ve ever been to in my life. Arriving is slow, and when you leave The security process is simple abuse from the staff, constant berating and shouting, this place is cray
Nata LieOctober 14, 2011
Do not come to the airport too early since there is nothing to spend time with before the check-in. You might need to sit on the floor.
Alexander MyskinSeptember 8, 2013
Allow at least 40 minutes for security check on weekend mornings.

Still Europe's grottiest airport. Low ceilings, bad lighting, cheap materials and chaotic layout. Greedy owners push more passengers through than the infrastructure can cope with. Avoid.

Despite nominal 1st - world status luggage delivery is as slow anywhere.

Check in early as security can take a looooong time.
Michiel le BlancJune 24, 2012
Having to pay £1 for the plastic bag to put in your liquids is just ridiculous and an extremely unhospitable!
m.c. phooJanuary 25, 2013
Train connects right to terminal. Nice

Parking charges are scandalous! £2.50 just to pick someone up!

Strangely no border control out of the UK when you fly from a regional airport and then transfer through to an international flight

Have a Boddington's!
Kurtis SherryDecember 22, 2017
Extremely slow security despite very few people waiting. Free Wi-fi only lasts an hour, then you have to pay £5 per hour or £10 per day which is ridiculous

Free 60 minute wifi which is flakey at best, but you can't reconnect next time you only get this free hour once, ever! 👎🏼

I found it strange that terminal 2 doesn't have enough chairs at checking in desk area!!!
