AND FINALLY: Airport is flushed with success

Manchester Airport has won a Platinum Award for its Changing Places facilities at the Loo of the Year Awards in the 2015 search to find the best ‘away from home’ toilets in the UK.

Secret visits were carried out by toilet-checking judges, and the airport’s Changing Places facilities in Terminals 1, 2 and 3 picked up the national award, with a five-star rating.

The annual Loo of the Year Awards started in 1987 and are recognised as standard setters for all those who provide 'away from home' facilities for staff, customers and visitors.

Over 1,000 entries were received this year and every entry receives unannounced visits from an authorised Loo of the Year Awards Inspector and was assessed against 100 judging criteria – including signage and décor, fixtures and fittings and overall standards of cleanliness and management.

Business Travel News editor has not been invited to judge the 2016 version.  He is happy to evaluate restaurants but loos would be passed on to someone else. www.manchesterairport.co.uk
