A “significant” number of flights from Manchester Airport are expected to be delayed or cancelled due to a “major” power cut, its operator has said.
In a statement released at 06:30 BST on Sunday, the airport said the issue – which occurred in the early hours of the morning – had caused “widespread disruption” which is affecting flights from Terminals 1 and 2.
The airport’s website suggests at least six upcoming departures and four arrivals have so far been cancelled.
“Passengers due to fly from Terminal 3 should come to the airport as normal unless advised otherwise by their airline, but could be affected by delays,” Manchester Airport advised.
The disruption comes at the start of the busy summer holiday season at the UK’s third-busiest airport.
