KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Melbourne Airport to Manchester

  • While there are four public airports in the Melbourne area which offer passenger flights, the main two, where most traffic flies out, are Melbourne Airport (MEL) and Avalon Airport (AVV). For travellers looking to journey from Melbourne to Manchester Airport (MAN), look for flights out of these airports to get the best deals.
  • Melbourne Airport (MEL) is the main international airport servicing the city of Melbourne and so most flights to Manchester will depart from here. However, Avalon Airport (AVV) is located southwest of Melbourne and is mainly serviced by the budget airline Jetstar Airways. For travellers living southwest of Melbourne or who wish to travel with Jetstar, Avalon Airport (AVV) is worth a look.

  • There are a variety of public transport options for travellers flying into Manchester. Several regional buses operate within the local area and the National Express coach service is available for travellers looking to continue on with their journey to other cities. For travellers heading into Manchester city, we suggest looking at the 24h Stagecoach service, which runs between the city and the airport.
  • If you are returning from Manchester Airport (MAN) and don’t want to have to carry your luggage on public transport, there is a Home Bag Check-in service offered by the airport, where bags can be checked in at home for a fee and then transported to your plane for you while you journey on separately.

Boarding was excellent except they did last call 30 minutes earlier .

It was worst flight ever of 26h. Poor service and seating. Flight from Abu Dhabi to Islamabad service and seating was worst ever. No tv extra.

i was not allowed to use lounge, although i had business class ticket, and nobody told me my ticket was not eligible to use lounge

A380 First Class Apartments were phenomenal. Comfortable bed and matress cover, superior vegetarian five course meal, shower, small business lounge and plenty of exercise walking around the aircraft.

Etihad seems to have a very strict luggage enforcement. I am a very light passenger compared to other passengers which are mainly heavier. I do not understood why airlines enforce the weight restriction so strictly. I was overweight luggage of 1.5kg, but am probably 10+kg lighter than the average passenger. Other airlines are far more accommodating. Poor customer service as far as I am concerned. If weight is such an important issue to an airline they should charge passengers by total amount of body weight plus luggage. To me just ridiculous.

Certainly! Here’s a more concise and refined version of your report, maintaining a polished and professional tone: --- Crew Check-In – Kolkata (CCU) The crew handling check-in in Kolkata was outstanding—efficient, courteous, and highly organized. Flight Segment – CCU to Abu Dhabi (AUH) A standard flight overall. Notably, only one in-flight meal option—a vegetarian curry—was available, which seemed unsuitable for a red-eye journey. The crew offered no alternatives, which was unexpected. Flight Segment – Abu Dhabi to Rome (AUH-FCO) Comfort improved on this leg, but service quality was average, falling short of Etihad’s premium standards. Crew attention was heavily absorbed by a difficult couple in Row 15 (port side), resulting in disproportionate focus. It was concerning that a steward had to personally return to apologize, a task better suited for supervisory staff. This highlights a development opportunity for supervisors Anna and Quashim in managing guest escalation professionally.

Should have had business class line in immigration. Food quality suboptimal

Likes: on time departure, new plane Didn’t like:very poor quality food, very limited entertainment.no amenity kit etc.

Bad. Flight was very uncomfortable with narrow and shallow seats, very little food and water. I will not fly etihad again.

Boarding catastrophic let alone have to claimb the plain rather than using jetway. 5.5 hr delay leaving had to do stop in Lgw for a new crew which further compounded the delay. Connecting flight would not wait and had to pend a night in a hotel. Curiously my seat would not go full flat.
