Manchester Airport says it is set for a strong summer as passenger numbers return to near pre-pandemic levels and holidaymakers increasingly look to far flung destinations.

Figures for February this year show 1.7 million passengers travelled through the airport last month, which is half a million more than February of last year.

The figure equates to 93 per cent of the total number of passenger in February 2019, pre-Covid. Low-cost airlines, said the airport, had a particularly strong month, with 865,000 holidaymakers taking budget flights last month just one per cent less than pre-pandemic levels.
