there is no outbound passport control in the UK so if you are carry on only the only point a passport gets checked is on boarding at the gate. also Ireland is in a common travel area with the UK, so you can actually fly to Ireland without a passport - although some airlines like FR require you...

A gates so the furthest pier. usually the odd ones on the north side, so A5/7/9/11

ah, i see what you mean now. thanks for the clarification - there was also an in-line advert in your post as well which made the flow a bit disjointed.

so this is even more unclear, the airside inter terminal bus does exist? but just for eligible airlines? - albeit we have no idea who they are but FR are the only T3 one so unless they are the whole thing is pointless. btw, the fact that you need to contact the airport CEO for an answer to...

Thank you. If not, then that page should be clearer and explicitly state that there is no airside inter-terminal connection route. Any inter-terminal connections require you to exit landside on arrival (thro passport control if applicable), and make your way to the onward terminal.

i think just to clarify , its information on the MAN website, not my information. I did see the page you posted a screenshot of, but for an airport that has gone to great efforts to try and pretend to be a connection hub with staffed airside connection points, the lack of information on that...

are the airside shuttles between terminals no more then? https://mediacentre.manchesterairport.co.uk/how-to-use-manchester-airports-flight-transfer-centre/

i am not sure IB has actually said anything as such to confirm either way - but obviously you would expect flights to be loaded for October onwards if they were intending to operate the route so it does seem like the route finishes on 30 September.

i think this assume the gs shown on FR24 is completely accurate and glitch free? is it possible there was in reality no slowing down during the take off roll?

yes that loophole does exist with that system - probably one of the reasons no other airport does it that way

i cannot think of another airport of similar size which has no internal route for domestic arrivals. i assume there was provision for one but it was cut when covid hit to save costs, and instead MAN decided to offer the bizarre and unique biometrics on arrival path - no other airport does this...

yes better than it was late last year, but it's still significantly longer than when BA were in T3. i don't see how you can argue otherwise.

yes low vis this morning, and below cat1 limits - atrs can't do cat3 autolands.

well that was exactly the point really when these remedial slots were created - those places were going to a monopoly once BA took BMI over, so the remedial slots are supposed to encourage other airlines to start the routes and bring back some competition. they weren't supposed to cover routes...

i think only for certain domestic routes tho? MAN and ABZ come to mind.
