Manchester Airport departures — live

All flights departing Manchester Airport today, live: scheduled and estimated times, destination, airline, terminal and status.

Before you fly from Manchester

Check your terminal in advance (Manchester has been consolidating into the expanded Terminal 2) and follow your airline’s check-in advice; two hours short-haul, three long-haul is the safe rule. Security at peak holiday times is the main variable, so the early side is the right side.

After take-off

Watch your own aircraft climb out over Cheshire on the Manchester flight radar, or give the flight number to whoever picks you up at the destination.
