A man was fined £25 for parking four minutes in a pick-up zone at Manchester Airport due to system errors and traffic delays.
Archie McCaig, 63, was charged £25 by Manchester Airport for parking in Terminal 2’s barrier-free pick-up zone for four minutes on November 21, 2025, after arriving to collect his nephew and family.
He said traffic congestion delayed his exit, causing the airport’s automated system to record a 30-minute stay.
Despite the brief visit and automatic payment setup, he was billed under a fee structure that charges £5 for up to five minutes and increases with duration, with a £100 late penalty.
McCaig called the charge “scandalous,” blaming system inaccuracies and traffic delays, and said he plans to pursue legal action over what he views as unfair enforcement.
