The airport saw mass disruption on Sunday, with flights being cancelled and delayed. Bolton passengers told how their plans were scuppered, from losing a day of their holidays to entire trips being cancelled altogether.

"I have never seen anything like it, you couldn't walk as people's luggage was everywhere." The flight was continually delayed, until it was cancelled 20 minutes before it was due to leave.
Rebecca added: "There was no point in rescheduling for the next day as it was only a three day trip. We decided to go home but could not get out.
