Since the direct BA New York flight from Manchester the lounge is very quiet. Previous notes say that the lounge has reduced in size and gave space to Flybe. Well it has reduced in size further. I don't know whether this is to redecorate the section that hooks right around the back where the IT suite used to be or whether is has surrendered the space.
The IT suit has been moved to the snug area (immediate left after reception, where the telephone booths used to be) This is all very recent. (may 2010)
Showers are still there and basic bar and food. But as its only a hub now you can't really expect any more.
I still really like this lounge and Janet on reception is just a real star to BA crew at Manchester.
