01:02transformation programme. As you enter Terminal 2 East, you'll start your journey at the new,

01:09bright and spacious Terminal 2 Check-in. Extending the fabulous look and feel we created through

01:14the first phase of our transformation, the Check-in Hall will have the latest self-service

01:19technology. The new Security Hall features 10 new security lanes fitted with next-generation

01:253D scanners. Passengers will go through security, then head up the escalators to arrive in the

01:32Orientation Zone, where you will find shops like Travelex, WHSmith and the local artist

01:38and coffee brand, Grindsmith. Passengers will then walk through World Duty 3, where

01:44you'll be greeted with all your favourite brands and products. After this, passengers

01:51will then enter our new boutique mall. Overlooking here, you can see our fantastic extended Amber

01:56Alehouse bar. It will also feature a range of luxury, high-end brands such as Jo Malone,

02:03Tom Ford, Le Labo and our very first Chanel store. To complement this, we're welcoming

02:09our first ever statement cocktail and champagne bar, Fevertree. The new Terminal 2 East will

02:27down the avenue, our high-street style shopping strip, featuring Starbucks and Lego, Rituals,

02:37Pandora and a World Duty Free Express. On the south side, there are even more great

02:47food options, including the Great Northern Market, with 475 seats and featuring six international

02:55street food kitchens, including a gooey dessert unit. And we'll be opening our very first

03:03Wetherspoon, which will be a sports-themed bar. There will also be additional seating

03:09for passengers to enjoy those impressive airfield views. New to Manchester, for a healthy

03:27option, we have Joe and the Juice. Plenty more seating and upper crust for those freshly

03:39baked baguettes. And an additional special assistance area, which leads us back to Apery,

03:54Pier 1 and provide 13 new flexible aircraft stands and modern boarding gates. The modernisation

04:01of the airfield will increase the capacity and optimise the airport's dual runway operation.
