The 2 hotels will be Garden Inn by hilton and Hampton inn by Hilton. This means there will be 3 Hilton hotels within 100 yards. These will be built in the same shipping container concept currently being seen at BHX, and are slated to be complete by February 2019.

I ended also noticed that red 2 piling rigs have been present in the location shown for about a week. Looks like it could be a multi storey, but not seen any planning permissions put in? Any ideas?

2 new hotels on the Airport city site have gone for planning permission. At long last we may see some actual buildings for Airport city: http://pa.manchester.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=P0J4XZBCIAW00 Also looks like a new footbridge is to be...

Yep, pretty much all gone now!

The petrol station opposite T1 is now pretty much demolished. It's going to be a new multi storey car park (nothing fancy, just a one level steel structure).

Terminal 3 is having some work done to try and improve the passenger experience. Security is getting 3 more lanes, so that there will be 9 in total (currently only 6 in full time use, lanes 2 and 7 were older machinery so were never really used). Lane 2 will eventually become fast track, and...

Enterprise way will open on 19th November with a big cycle ride in collaboration with team Sky cycling. A new BP Petrol station and drive through Costa will be built in front on the DHL shed in the logistics area. This is to alleviate the loss of the 2 Texaco petrol stations that were lost in...

Well Norwegian have re-applied for a shed load of slots next summer, and just 2 days ago told 3 different people via different social media that MAN-AGP at the very least was returning. Given MAN is Alicantes busiest route, and DY/VY and MON all exiting said route at the same time, I think it...

Oh I don't think Norwegian were the ringleaders. I actually think it was the other three, orange, blue and red.

I think there was also undertones of the other carriers smelling blood, and pricing Monarch out of the market. Let's face it, we all know that Monarch had issues 12 months ago, and they were on the ropes. It was never publicly admitted, but we know. I think in that 12 months, some carriers may...

But it's also slightly nerving, when all other routes are cut, then no guesses as to where gets cut next if they need to do so.....

They still have a large Edinburgh operation.

Norwegian have said MAN-AGP will be running in S18. I've also heard ALC will be returning, but didn't manage to catch if TFS and BCN will be coming back too. They have also confirmed the return of MAN-AGP on social media, and that flights will be back on sale soon.

Norwegian are incentive chasers, and MAN will be like all other monarch airports that will be handing out sweetheart deals. Norwegian have been interested before, this may now seal the deal.
