    We've been quoted anywhere from £180 to £300 for Manchester.

    I'd expect it to be cheaper than going to Manchester airport, so I'm thinking maybe £140ish.

    Probably around £150 I’d imagine. Just call a few and get quotes.

    Also, the airport was woefully inadequate in providing seating for passengers waiting to depart. And it wasn’t even busy!
    Basically unless you go in a bar you’re not sitting down. I’m all for sitting in bars - but not at 6am.

    Sounds about right. We've flown from LBA twice and I refuse to do a third.

    No it's not,we park at LBA a few times a year and that's a good price. We usually use the car park nearest the terminal and it was £114 but they are going all the time.

    LBA, Manchester and East Misds are usually the same price, expect to pay about £150. I’ve booked one of those offsite parking companies for £53 in May/June for 6 nights. Just drop car off they take you and bring you back from airport.They’re called Park2Travel

    In this case it's not, I've never managed to find accurate stuff online for taxi pricing.

    Best bet is to ring Blue Line
