Manchester International Airport London : Nowadays, over 20 million passengers pass through Manchester airport booking hall. Originally called "Ringway Airport", it is now the third biggest international air terminal in Britain. Rail linked to the city centre, it takes only 15 minutes to reach, though it is 10 miles out. Air traffic controllers currently handle 94 airlines, with over 170 world-wide destinations. In 1994, the airport handled over 73,000 metric tonnes of cargo and freight. It has come a long way since the City Council first decided to build a municipal "aerodrome" in 1929, and the first arrival of an "international" service landed in 1938 in the form of a KLM DC-2 from Amsterdam. Manchester Airport is unlike most other major UK airports in that it is not run by the British Airports Authority (BAA), as most are, but it is independently managed by Manchester Airport PLC, and owned by all 10 Metropolitan Boroughs which make up Greater Manchester. It is most proud of its independent status, and this is reflected in its mission to become "the Best World Airport".
