"Not many places to get your laptop out other than the restaurants and the central area in departures, but nothing dedicated."

"Theres a money exchange on your right as you come out of security and towards departures."

"Time to gates seems pretty good, no weird shuttle trains or anything like that. Just a walk from the departures lounge."

"My problem with Manchester Airport is less to do with the airport and more to do with transport in the North West. £40 to £50 in a taxi for a 25 minute journey. The other option is a bus then train to Manchester and another train out of Manchester to the airport."

"Aspire Lounge is great (when it is not super busy and you can actually get in, which has been usually the case in recent months). Staff is friendly and the small food selection is tasty. Food seems to be mostly vegetarian too but it is not well labelled. "

"It seems that there just one water fountain right past security. "

"Loads of staff, excruciatingly slow."

"Fairly quick for Lufthansa 2-3pm on a Saturday. There was a queue but wasn’t too bad."

"There’s one just after security on your left hand side. Apparently only one in departures (right now), so don’t miss it!"

"Plenty of screens around, but not many announcements. "

"Haven’t seen any. I’m sure they must have a few somewhere. "

"Gates 1-15 about 5 to 15 minutes from departure lounge

Gates 20-32 about 5 to 15 minutes from departure lounge.

Gates 34-36 about 5 to 10 minutes from departure’s lounge.
"

"A few charging spots dotted around the departure lounge, mainly around the pillars in a circle. Could be more."

"Can be a bit slow so it's a good idea to turn up early if you think the airports going to be busy."

"Smallish lounge with no windows, ok selection of food and drinks. Often full though but quiet on my midweek midday visit. No quiet booths or decent work hideaways."

"There are a few lounges to select from but often busy and full on busy days. Book ahead if you can."
