  • A few years since I flew into there, was Cat 1 in my day, thanks for the update.

  • Thank you to all who replied. We did book Leeds Bradford, just seemed the easiest all round and the taxi is £50 cheaper and quicker to/from there + hotel in view from the airport. I hope it goes ok but we will make use of the Twilight check-in for the bags which Jet2 offer.

    You can get trains direct to MAN airport you know, so might not need a taxi.

    But you sorted it now, so enjoy your trip!

    Have a great time and just take your time and you'll be fine.
