Power outage delays Manchester Airport flights
Passengers flying out of Manchester Airport are being warned of disruption to flights after a short power outage.
Power went off in Terminal 3 at 8am but has since been restored, Manchester Airport tweeted.
Work is underway to return services to normal but delays are possible through the morning.
Passengers should check the current flight status with their airline.
“Power has been restored and we are working to minimise disruption to passengers.”
Some flights were delayed.
The airport said it is still investigating the cause of the outage.
Some passengers posted online they had missed flights due to being unable to check in luggage for departures scheduled just after the power cut began.
Several confirmed ‘long tailbacks’ at check-in.
