Manchester Airport has issued a major update for easyJet passengers this week. There’s been a change to the location of departing flights.
easyJet flights will now depart from Terminal 1 Departures B, having previously departed from Terminal 1 Departures A. The change came into force from Wednesday, January 15.
In a statement shared on X, Manchester Airport said: “Travelling with @easyJet from Manchester Airport?
“From Wednesday January 15 2025, check-in for all easyJet flights will move from Terminal 1 Departures A, to Terminal 1 Departures B. This is located on the lower level of the terminal, next to the drop off forecourt.”

The change comes as Manchester Airport’s £1.3billion transformation project nears completion this summer which will see the new-look Terminal 2 become the beating heart of the airport, while Terminal 1 will close and the number of airlines operating from Terminal 3 will be reduced.
During the project passengers have been alerted to changes in operations at the airport. Towards the end of 2024, several airlines were moved to Terminal 2, including Lufthansa and TAP Air Portugal.
In September, the airport announced a total of 22 new retail, bar and restaurant units will open in Terminal 2 next summer when the transformation is complete, including the airport’s first Wetherspoons, a Greggs and a Fever-Tree cocktail and champagne bar.
The new terminal will be home to luxury retailers like Pandora and Chanel, the latter opening its first standalone airport make-up and skincare boutique. These will be joined by big highstreet names including LEGO, WH Smith and Boots.
There will also be a huge 472-seater food hall, the Great Northern Market, which will offer a street-style dining experience with seven international street food kitchens including a unit from viral Manchester dessert brand Gooey.
