THE number of people using Manchester Airport increased again last month, marking 15 months of continuous growth – and setting another new record-breaking milestone for annual passenger numbers, at just short of 22.5 million.
June saw a 3.05 per cent increase in passenger numbers, up from 2,247,885 in June 2014, to 2,316,492 for the same month this year.
The uplift sets a new all-time record annual total - 22,475,753 passengers - for Manchester Airport, which celebrated its 77th anniversary during the month, up 5.92 per cent year on year.
