Looking for evening flights

ellay864

I'm looking to get a few days away, not really fussed where, but as DH and I will only be taking a Friday off work we'd love to find flights that go late evening from Manchester on the Thursday so we get 2 full days before coming back on the Sunday.
Short of typing in date and numerous cities in turn, is there an easy way to just look for what flights go out on a Thursday night?

I've just had a look at skyscanner and it does work through there, but you have to select a Thursday for each search (leave the "to" box empty and select flights from UK in the from box).

The results come back via destination rather than departure airport though.

Late evening flights tend to be aircraft returning to their non UK base.

You could look at last Thursday's flights on flightstats if you want to go before the summer timetable ends in October to give you clues. Otherwise just use skyscanner and select Man to everywhere.

you could wait until thursday evening and then look at the live departures board online for Manchester Airport http://www.manchesterairport.co.uk/flightinformation/ might give you some ideas as to what would be possible
