Ryanair passengers watched on as their flights took off without them as a power outage caused chaos at Manchester Airport.
Terminal 3 was hit by a power cut at 8am on Wednesday, May 24, and "stranded" passengers complained of issues checking in, boarding and being stuck in long queues.
Pictures from inside and outside of the terminal showed huge queues and throngs of people as passengers claimed their flights "took off without them." Some Ryanair passengers had arrived three hours before their flights to Tenerife but still missed it as they were trying to check their luggage in.
