Manchester Airport currently handles around 28m passengers per year, with numbers having grown substantially in recent years. This expansion will see capacity increased to over 50m per year which should allow for significant growth over the next couple of decades. It doesn't just serve Manchester, it's the major international gateway for much of Northern England and the biggest UK airport outside London. Current passenger numbers have it at #14 in the EU for total passenger numbers and #13 for passengers traveling beyond the EU.
