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.
  • As one of the busiest airports in Britain, Manchester Airport (MAN) is the main airport for the region, and anyone looking to stay in nearby towns and cities is recommended to fly into Manchester and continue with the rest of their journey on land.
  • 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.

Unfortunately the flight was cancelled so I never got to go

Unfortunately the flight was cancelled so I never got to go

The seats seemed smaller than other business class offerings. The entertainment menu was limited. Flight crew was good.

Business class ticket should include lounge access and seat selection. The food quality and varieties should be more. It was surpirise that no dessert was offered.

Dear Team, I purchased a full travel package that included 2 checked bags through you and JustFly. However, when I arrived at the airport, my ticket showed 0 checked bags. Since I was traveling internationally to India with 2 bags, It was a $200 per bag at the counter, which was extremely disappointing. For an international trip, why would I ever choose a no‑bag option for only $20–$30 less? This seems like an error in the booking process, and I am requesting clarification and a resolution. I have called JustFly and on phone for 1 hr :53 min and they couldn't help till I show some kind of proof etc which isn't possible but besides that love your service and using it for years !

Awful the whole airline arrived to check baggage and board our flight and the airline desk was closed where none of the passengers could check in baggage, asked for a supervisor and was refused a supervisor, called the airlines from the airport and they refused to refund the flights for their actions in the airport, Etihad and Garuda Airlines absolutely horrible customer service all the way around.

Good one but just notice that you have to ask several time to get water or coffee .

Early arrival. Good boarding. Deplaning this flight is very slow both coming and going. Baggage arrived quickly for Pearson

It was mediocre. Honestly, the flight was late but that didn’t bother me as I had plenty of time. The only thing that bothered me is that the crew never asked to make the beds for us in business class. Maybe the crew was exhausted and that just didn’t occur to them.

From the start of my vacation at Logan Airport, Boston it was chaotic. I'm praying my flight home is better .I'm grateful that we landed safe

The flight was over 1 hour late taking off ,when I arrived in Abu Dhabi ,I missed my connecting flight to Bangkok so I had to wait almost 6 hours for my flight arriving in Bangkok at 6:30 am ,So I missed a whole day of my vacation and my hotel room sat empty so I paid for hotel days that I was not there. In Abu Dhabi there was a woman that worked the desk at transfers that was so professional, courteous , helpful,and may I say absolutely beautiful .she got me food vouchers for my layover and was a very calming presence. Besides that I will never use Etihad again I will pay the Xtra money . I'm sure they won't read or see this but it's my "2 cents" I'll use an airline that respects me and my hard earned dollars
