Flights from Heathrow to Manchester: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Heathrow to Manchester 
JohnFlew with British Airways-Sep 2026
Take the train! It will be quicker as you spend most of your time on an airport transfer bus!
Laura LeighFlew with British Airways-Oct 2024
Be prepared for them canceling the flight last minute if the flight isn't full -- they only care about their profits, not customer service or abiding by the implied contract of getting you to where you need to be on time. Don't schedule anything for at least a day after your intended arrival time. And be ready for the terminal to be packed, noisy and uncomfortable. If you have another way of getting to Manchester, take it. Don't book this short haul flight as it's so unreliable.
