An elevated

airport experience

Escape Lounges in Terminal 3 is now closed permanently. Instead, elevate your journey with aether - the Private Terminal available to all, exclusively at Manchester Airport. Enjoy private check-in and security screening, a bespoke Dining Experience by Adam Reid, panoramic runway views, and chauffeur transfers to and from your gate. Whether departing or arriving, experience seamless travel from start to finish. All passengers can travel through aether with cabin baggage. British Airways guests can also check in hold luggage. If you're flying Ryanair and want to use aether with checked baggage, you can take advantage of the airline’s Twilight Bag Drop service – available from 7pm to 10pm at the Ryanair desks in Terminal 3 for flights departing before 8am.
