If you fly from Manchester Airport to the US then expect the airport to be vastly improved as the Manchester Airport Group is to invest £440 million into the final expansion of Terminal 2.
The planned improvements to Terminal 2 will include:
- Doubling the size of the existing departure lounge, with a wider selection of shops and food and drink outlets, showcasing the best of what the North has to offer
- - The construction of an additional security hall, fitted with next-generation security scanners.
- - A new pier, matching the look and feel of the first pier that opened in 2019. It will include spacious gates
- - A new dual taxiway system to improve airfield efficiency, with flexible aircraft stands
- - More than doubling the terminal's hold baggage capacity to over 5,000 bags per hour, with two new teardrop check in islands.
Completion of Terminal 2 will be in 2025. Once open it will see the closure of Terminal 1, originally opened in 1962.
