UK airports are braced for more than two million British holidaymakers over the Easter weekend.
Around 2.6 million car journeys are expected to be made on Good Friday, as strong winds from the Spanish-named Storm Nelson hit the start of the Easter getaway.
Travel trade organisation Abta said airports are reporting “strong numbers”, with 175,000 due to leave from Stansted, 105,000 from Luton, 160,000 from Manchester, 79,000 from Birmingham, and 89,000 from Edinburgh between Friday and Monday. A Met Office yellow weather warning for rain in parts of Northern Ireland runs to the early hours of Friday.
Deputy chief meteorologist Dan Harris said: “The weather is expected to gradually improve following the widely unsettled spell of the past few days, with a fairly typical mix of spring-like weather across the UK. The RAC and transport analysis company Inrix commissioned a survey which suggested 2.6 million leisure journeys by car will be made on Good Friday.
Manchester Airport managing director Chris Woodroofe said: “It’s exciting that record numbers of people will be taking off from here this Easter: 320,000 people will travel over the bank holiday weekend – that’s up 7% on April 2023.”
