Manchester: Winter 2026 ACL report

Although the report has been out for just over a week I regret that I have not, yet, been able to produce a full analysis for you. As I'm now away until Thursday evening I though I would just reproduce the list of new destinations. Remember these are new for Winter 2026 and many have already been served during summer schedules. They are also based upon airlines requests for slots and are therefore subject to change.

I will try to give a more detailed breakdown when I am back - but the CAA data for April is now available and will take priority in my use of time!!

Antigua, Bodrum, Cagliari, Corfu, Catania, Enontelio, Essaouria, Heraklion, Ibiza, Kos, Klagenfurt, Kalamata, Kuala Lumpur, Mahon, Nuremberg, Srdinia, Sicily, Preveza, Reus, Riyadh, Samos, Split, Giza

surely the last one is Giza, rather than Gaza?

Hope springs eternal…

Ooops correct. Thanks for spotting the error and I corrected the mistake.

As promised here is a more detailed file from the ACL report.





The percentage variations over last winter are amazing - both being around 25-26pc up. But, remember my comment back on Wednesday when I specifically said that these are just request for slots and will possible not all be taken up. An example is that IndiGO are listed, however we know that they are now withdrawing from Manchester.

The W26 Start of season report will, hopefully, be out around 1st October.
