Hi Alison,
At the moment there are no other travellers on this trip flying from Manchester. If you were to book, you would be able to fly from Manchester, even if you were the only one flying from this airport and there would be an Just You Representative to see you through check-in.
We release seats around 12 weeks before departure, even if we return seats to the airlines, you may still be able to book a regional flight, but it may incur a supplement so I would recommend booking sooner rather than later.
Kindest regards,
Julia
