Manchester Aviation Viewing Park Launch Multiple Entry Tickets

Manchester Airport’s Aviation Viewing Park now has multiple entry tickets available for those who visit regularly and want to save a bit of money on the entrance fee. The TAS Manchester site has full details.

The tickets come in batches of 25, 50 and 100. These are priced £25, £50 and £100 respectively. I’m sure you can work out that means entrance is therefore reduced to £1 per visit. You can buy tickets from the entrance kiosk, but if you present your TAS membership at the Aviation Shop on site, you’ll get 10% off the ticket cost.

There’s no mention whether the tickets are for pedestrians only, or include car entrance. Perhaps someone could comment if they know.

Ringway Reports – the site that has dealt with spotting information and movements at Manchester Airport for a long time, has now closed. The duties of reporting movements etc. has now gone to their other site, run by The Aviation Society, according to Glenn Wheeler.

You can still visit the original site for access to the archives of movements at this link.

The TAS Manchester site now covers all the expected movements, daily movements and all of the original information it held about trips & excursions, Manchester Airport news, and spotting information. It’s a fantastic resource for the spotter needing info on Manchester Airport.
