Flights to Manchester
What to know before you fly to Manchester?
Local currency in Manchester is pounds sterling (£) and average flying time from Brisbane to Manchester is around 23 hours in total. Due to the distance there are no direct flights, so a stop somewhere in Asia or the Middle East will be part of any journey.
Summer temperatures reach around 25 degrees Celsius while winters can be chilly, with daytime temperatures ranging between 1 degree and 4 degrees. All Mancunians speak English although the accent can be quite thick and the slang is colourful too: “Alright lad, are you up to owt?” “Hey mate, are you doing anything?”. To be thirsty is to be “gagging” for a drink and if a film was “bobbins” it was rubbish.
