Manchester Airport and children

If you are travelling with kids this summer, make sure to head on over to Swissport’s Aspire lounge in Manchester Airport Terminal 1, which has been kitted out with the world’s first play-tech pods for young children.

Courtesy of a relationship with the children’s character Airside Andy, this innovative new collaboration, designed to keep children entertained during airside waiting times, sees the introduction of child friendly tablets, preloaded with Airside Andy fun and adventure along with other mainstream games.  Housed in a child friendly baggage carousel, the tablets protrude from real suitcases on bendy poles creating a unique and fun play area for children.

Swissport has opened its lounge doors to Airside Andy in recognition of the need to create a space for children that acknowledges and caters for how children’s play has changed and developed.  Together they plan to roll-out the pods in all airport lounges nationwide.

Airside Andy gaming pods come fully equipped with 2–4 interactive tablets, child-proofed and fully loaded with Airside Andy’s latest pilot and a host of games.  For non-eligible airport users the cost of the lounge is £20.99 (£16.99 children)  www.airsideandy.com
