Manchester Airport

⚠️ Customer Information Since October, Ryanair passengers have been checking in at Terminal 1 - Departures A and using the new security lanes before entering the Terminal 3 Departure lounge. ​ From 00.01 on 5th March 2026, the Terminal 1 – Departures A entrance will be renamed Terminal 3 Departures to better align with the customer journey. ​ Arrivals remain unchanged. All Ryanair flights arriving at Manchester Airport will continue to arrive at Terminal 3 Arrivals.​ To align with these changes and for consistency across the site, we will also be renaming all of our car park products.

@manairport Hi, I am collecting passengers arriving from terminal 2 today. Where would be the best place to park the car for approximately 1 hour? Do I pay at the barrier on exit? Thanks

@manairport what a terrible experience through T3 - lack of seating, terrible communication from road signs to in terminal and staff who just stand around watching passengers trying to figure out what’s going on. Over an hour delayed and not so much as an apology, let alone info

@RekallToys Please get in touch with your airline directly regarding this enquiry. Thank you.

@manairport hi, if using the twilight bag drop can I check my baby items in too? Need to check a car seat and want to take the pram to the gate on the day

@MissCdavies1 Hello! Priority Pass members can prebook the T3 Escape Lounge on our website. Thank you 😊

@manairport hi , is there a new lounge yet in terminal 3 for priority pass members ?

@emma_maslen Hello Emma, thank you for letting us know. We have passed this on to the relevant team.

@manairport Stansted toilets by gate 84 OMg… need urgent attention!!!

Still no response from @manairport since my message 7 days ago on Tuesday 5th May

I’ve had no response from @manairport since my message on Tuesday - does @manairport no have any regard for its customers?

@lal537 We would advise you to contact APCOA directly on Monday from 9am, as they manage the payments. You can use the live chat at pay.manchesterairport.co.uk or call 0345 901 3318. Thank you.

@manairport I’m disappointed that you took my money “late” yet still fined me. It’s not as if I avoided paying altogether!! You can’t appeal if you want to pay the lower amount and I am certainly not paying £100!!!

Dropped my son off, was just over 2 mins, forgot to pay in 24 hours but you took my payment after 48 hours and now a £100 fine dropped through my door!! You are daylight robbery!!! #manchesterairport

@BSambridge Hello Ben. We have an overheight car park available at T2 for vehicles over 2 metres. Please note that this car park is chargeable and does not qualify for free parking with the twilight bag drop.

@manairport where can you park to drop your bags off when you have a roof rack on your car and you cant park at the multistory because of height restrictions

Travelling with TUI or Jet2? Take advantage of their twilight bag drop service🧳 Passengers using this service can now get free parking at Terminal 2 West Multi Storey Car Park while dropping off their bags. Simply take a token at the entry barrier and proceed to check-in and drop off your bags. Attend the ticket desk with your boarding pass and car park token to validate your token. Return your token at the exit barrier and the barrier will rise. 🕑 TUI: Open 14:00 - 21:00, for flights before midday the next day. 🕟 Jet2: Open 16:30 - 21:00, for flights before midday the next day.

@ScouseB A list of the electronic devices you can carry in your hand luggage can be found here: gov.uk/hand-luggage-r…. Electronic items do not need to be removed from bags. Thank you.

@manairport Many thanks, can I also keep my tablet in my backpack?

@manairport Hi do I still need to put my toiletries under 100ml in a clear bag? I'm flying to Dublin tomorrow. Thanks

@1987clairebear Unfortunately, Standard access to the 1903 Lounge is officially limited to 2 hours before your scheduled flight departure time. 😊

@manairport Sorry can I ask a follow up q? Can I access the 1903 lounge more than 2 hrs before my flight time? I'm going to be at the airport 3 hrs before my flight, due to travel arrangements. Thanks!

@manairport hello 👋 I was trying to book access to T2 Escape lounge for Sun 10th 5.30pm but its only giving me a 90min option? Does it not stay open until 8pm? Is this due to volume?

@ChaseOnToast Hello, as long as it is under 2 meters in height, this is fine.😊

@manairport @manairport Is a Ford Transit Custom okay to park in this car park it's under the 2m height
