Aer Lingus, am I right?

Aer Lingus, am I right in thinking it's two hours before at Manchester not three? Wanting to make sure we get there in plenty of time.

We travelled with Aer Lingus a few weeks ago and 2 hours was fine for us.
Good airline too.

take care

Pretty sure it's 2 hours because it counts as a European flight. I would note that the check in for Aer Lingus in Manchester is not quick...but I did go in August, so it was a busy period.

We have booked a cheeky week away in January, 2 months tomorrow

We like to get there for when check in opens so if it's 3 hours before then we would want to be there then, same if it's 2 hours. We like to get food and have a wonder around.

Agree. There was only 3 desks open when we went a few weeks back.

3! They only had 1 in Aug 2018. It was so slow.
They had 3 at Orlando and that was even worse.
Check in was the only complaint I had about Aer Lingus though, I was impressed with everything else. I�m even going with them via Dublin to go to New York in February

We checked in about 3 hours before flight but then went back to Radisson for breakfast.

I think we will look to getting there 3 hours before then, there's 7 of us going so sounds like we will be at check in a while then.
