The best way to check flight departures from Manchester UK
If you are like most travelers in the uk, chances are you’ve found yourself stranded at Manchester airport waiting for your flight to depart. This secondary airport handles itself quite nicely, and is a great airport for low cost carriers to fly into and out of.
The best website out for checking flight departures is www.manchesterairport.co.uk. All you have to do is enter the specific flight you want, and it provides an update as to its status.
A trick I learned from a travel agent is to check the gate your flight will depart from, and then check the status on the flight that is arriving in that gate. Often times, you’ll find the real truth there.
Another useful tool for checking flight status in real time is www.flightstats.com . Its interface is similar to manchesterairport.com, but on a larger scale. If you are using Manchester as your departure city for a larger itinerary, I would recommend using this tool instead. They also offer a widget that allows you to put their flight tracking tool on your own website or blog, which can be very handy for travelers as well. I have used this company for travel agencies in the past, and have found their coverage to be exceptional in the US (they’re based in Portland, OR) and with over 90% coverage throughout Europe. Their coverage drops significantly if you are flying to South America or Africa, though I believe this has more to do with different airlines around the world, rather than their system limitations.
These are the two tools I recommend using for checking flight departures from Manchester, UK North America, Europe and Asia. |
