Tours


With airline displays and specialist aviation videos, an airport tour a great place to begin discovering the airport. We also have a range of Concorde tours which range from 40 minutes to a full days tour to discover the amazing aircraft.

We’ve created an exciting range of pre-bookable tour options to keep even the most enthusiastic aviation fans happy.

Option 1– DC-10
The forward section of a retired Monarch Airlines DC-10 airliner has been converted into a state-of-the-art ‘aviation classroom’, complete with seating, cockpit and audio-visual kit. With a genuine ‘on-board’ feel, it’s a popular educational resource for school parties.

Concorde Tours
Manchester Airport’s supersonic superstar, Concorde G-BOAC, loves being the centre of attention. You can now get an insider’s view of the world’s favourite supersonic jet on a whole range of guided tours, and even tie the knot on-board.
