MANCHESTER AIRPORT has published some interesting figures, which show that the Heathrow route is easily the most popular with 1.4m passengers in 2004. 1.29m flew to and from the USA, whilst Tenerife proved to be the leading international destination, with a throughput of 803,000. Dublin provided 622,000 passengers, whilst the airport as a whole is now moving 22m people per year, only 14 months after it passed the 20m-milestone.
