Anyone who can afford a holiday in the current economic climate can also afford a quid for a trolley.

Even if thats true why should they get ripped off by manchester airport who made £58.1 million profit last year despite the current economic climate;)
 
Used the airport last Friday having returned from holiday. Used a trolly, but got my money back. But did get told that soon the pound would not be returned.
 
you could use a trolley token if you dont get them back, they only cost a pound.....err ang on.....I just spotted a flaw......will get back to you on that

Get your facts right, Manchester Airport is owned by Manchester City Council and the 9 other Greater Manchester local authorities.

Capitalist? If I lived in one of those authorities I'd be glad that the money from car parks etc was going to fund my local services and reduce my council tax burden.

Now thats an opportunity for you, selling brass washers at 50p outside the airport.
Your fortunes made.

PS wonder how many fiddles are going on, among those who return the trolleys, to the trolley park.
Retlaw.
 
It's not just M/C airport and one or two others started it a while ago.
Maybe when you get back put one in the taxi with you and get your quid back when you get home. :D:D:D:D

This is the split of ownership of Manchester Airport the company is known as MAG (Manchester airport group)The Manchester Airports Group Plc (MAG) is the country’s largest UK-owned airport operator. Their four airports - Manchester, East Midlands, Bournemouth and Humberside – currently serve a total of over 23.9 million passengers every year.And as you can see it is a plc so i doubt many of the council tax payers of Greater Manchester see much of the money it makes.

Are you a politician? You did'nt answer my question.And some people may have more than two suitcases if going away for an extended period, what would you do then because cases with wheels would'nt make a difference ? I assume you only have two hands, unless your from the Rossendale valley:D
