Manchester Airport Power Cut Causes Chaos
Delayed Flights and Long Queues
Manchester Airport was thrown into chaos on Monday after a major power cut caused widespread disruption. Passengers reported long queues and delays, with a quarter of all flights being canceled. The power cut affected both of the airport's terminals, with check-in and security being disrupted.
The power outage was caused by a fault with an underground cable. Engineers worked throughout the night to repair the fault, and power was restored at around 6am on Tuesday. However, the disruption continued throughout the day, with many flights being delayed or canceled.
Passengers Affected
Passengers at Manchester Airport expressed their frustration at the disruption. Many took to social media to share their experiences. One passenger, who was due to fly to Amsterdam, said that she had been waiting in a queue for over two hours. Another passenger, who was due to fly to Dublin, said that his flight had been canceled without any explanation.
Manchester Airport apologized for the disruption and said that it was doing everything it could to get passengers on their way as soon as possible. The airport advised passengers to check the status of their flight before traveling to the airport.
Airport Operations Resume
Manchester Airport was expected to run as usual on Tuesday, but passengers were advised to check the status of their flight before traveling to the airport. The airport said that it was working hard to clear the backlog of flights and that it expected the situation to improve throughout the day.
