flag A man was fined £25 for parking four minutes in a pick-up zone at Manchester Airport due to system errors and traffic delays.

flag 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. flag He said traffic congestion delayed his exit, causing the airport’s automated system to record a 30-minute stay. flag 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. flag 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.
