At around 6.30am on Monday (6 January), MAN confirmed it had been forced to close its runways for a second time in two days.
Liverpool and Leeds Bradford airports also shut their runways on Sunday (5 January) due to snow, and there was disruption too at Birmingham, Bristol and Newcastle airports over the weekend.
"Our runways are temporarily closed due to heavy snow," said MAN at around 6.30am on Monday. "Our teams work hard to clear them as quickly as possible."
The operation was complete by 7.15am, but the airport warned that owing to the earlier closure, "some departures and arrivals may still experience delays".
This comes on top of some displacement of flights on Sunday, which either could not take off or were diverted to neighbouring airports.
Passengers are advised to check the latest flight information with their airline before attempting to travel and allowing extra time for their journeys to the airport on Monday.
