manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Getaways over the summer holiday are well underway as Brits head out for a relaxing break or sunnier climates - and who can blame them with the rain we've faced in the last few days.

Manchester Airport is one of the UK’s busiest airports and handles more than 22 million passengers each year. During August, hundreds of flights set off from the Airport each day to meet demand from families and jet setters taking advantage of the school break.

As with any airport, some of the arriving and departing flights will from time to time get delayed or cancelled. While the majority of flights take off on time, there could be a number of reasons why some flights face delays or cancellations.
