Manchester Airport is to move all its operations into terminal one for the duration of the national lockdown in England.
The airport鈥檚 parent company, Manchester Airport Group, said it was in response to the drop in passenger numbers as a ban on international travel forms part of current lockdown measures.
The new 海角视频 guidance states that, if you live in England, you cannot travel overseas or within the 海角视频 between November 5 and December 2, unless for work, education or other legally permitted reasons.
The airport said it is expecting a number of airlines to 鈥渟cale back鈥 or cancel services during the lockdown period.
From Wednesday (November 11), the airport will close Terminal Three, while Terminal Two, which has been closed since September 2, will remain shut.聽
Passengers returning to Manchester after this date whose vehicles are parked in the Terminal Three Multi Storey Car Park will be contacted to advise them of this change, the group said.
Most of the airport鈥檚 retail stores will also close.
Karen Smart, managing director at Manchester Airport, said: 鈥淭he coronavirus pandemic poses an unprecedented challenge to our airport and to our wider industry, but we are determined to provide passengers with the best possible service in the circumstances, ensuring both their safety and comfort.鈥
She said: 鈥淐hanging our operation like this is not straightforward and I would like to thank our dedicated teams for their hard work in preparing for this scenario.
