A government minister has written to Manchester Airport, raising concerns about its drop-off and collection fees. Oldham West, Chadderton and Royton MP Jim McMahon has called for a full review of signage and the appeals process for those who are fined.
It comes after the RAC claimed that Manchester Airport was the most expensive UK airports on a 'cost-per-minute' basis, along with London Luton. Research shared by the company revealed that 11 out of 20 airports increased their drop off charges since last summer.
However, drop- off fees at several airports, including Manchester, remain frozen. The current drop-off charge at all of the airport’s three terminals is £5 for five minutes, increasing to £6.40 for up to 10 minutes , while those who take up to 30 minutes must pay £25.
