Manchester Airport passengers have been given a check-in warning amid reports of huge queues and delays in recent weeks and months.
Passengers have been met with long queues to get through security, cancelled flights and plenty of disruption as the airport has been affected by a spike in demand for international travel - following the last two years of covid-related travel restrictions - and staffing shortages.
Chaotic scenes at the airport have included queues so long that they have run into car parks, luggage abandoned on the runway and flights being cancelled at late notice.
