Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ECEEHC - An easyJet Airbus A320 family aircraft stands on the apron at Manchester Airport while ground staff refuel the jet during turnaround operations at the gate. Baggage equipment, service vehicles, a jet bridge and the open fuel connection are all visible, making this a strong editorial image of airport ground handling, aircraft servicing and the routine but critical process of preparing short-haul flights for departure. The picture is commercially useful for stories about aviation fuel, airport operations, airline resilience, delays and the pressure on carriers when fuel supply, logistics or wider energy markets become uncertain. It also works well as a concept image for possible jet fuel shortages, cancelled or delayed UK and EU flights, and the knock-on effect disruption can have on passengers, schedules and airport efficiency. easyJet says it operates an all-Airbus fleet, including A320 family aircraft, and Manchester Airport is one of its major UK bases, so the scene is closely tied to everyday British and European short-haul travel. The visible refuelling activity gives extra value for features about kerosene demand, fuel costs, decarbonisation, sustainable aviation fuel, operational turnaround times and the vulnerability of aviation to external shocks. Care should be taken not to imply that this specific aircraft was affected by any actual shortage or cancellation event, because the image simply shows normal apron servicing. Even so, it is a useful documentary illustration of how every departing flight depends on reliable fuel availability, skilled ground crews and efficient airport infrastructure. The image can support reporting on airline operations, airport congestion, energy security, flight cancellations, European travel disruption, summer holiday travel and the wider economics of commercial aviation. Other aircraft parked in the background reinforce the sense of a busy working airfield and a live airport environment.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RKGHK3 - Lufthansa operate up to four return flights daily between Manchester and Franfurt
Deutsche Lufthansa AG commonly shortened to Lufthansa, serves as the flag carrier of Germany. When combined with its subsidiaries, it stands as the second-largest airline in Europe in terms of passengers carried, after the ultra low-cost carrier Ryanair. Lufthansa is also one of the five founding members of Star Alliance, which is the world's largest airline alliance, formed in 1997.
Besides its own services, and owning subsidiary passenger airlines Austrian Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines, Brussels Airlines, and Eurowings (referred to in English by Lufthansa as its Passenger Airline Group), Deutsche Lufthansa AG owns several aviation-related companies, such as Lufthansa Technik and LSG Sky Chefs, as part of the Lufthansa Group. In total, the group has over 700 aircraft, making it one of the largest airline fleets in the world.
Lufthansa's registered office and corporate headquarters are in Cologne. The main operations base, called Lufthansa Aviation Center, is at Lufthansa's primary hub at Frankfurt Airport, and its secondary hub is at Munich Airport where a secondary Flight Operations Centre is maintained.
The company was founded as Luftag in 1953 by staff of the former Deutsche Luft Hansa that had been politically connected to the government of Nazi Germany and dissolved after World War II. Luftag continued the traditional branding of the German flag carrier by acquiring the Luft Hansa name and logo.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2NK2804 - Pret A Manger /ˈprɛt ə ˈmɒ̃ʒeɪ/ (prêt à manger is French for ready to eat) is an international sandwich shop franchise chain based in the United Kingdom, popularly referred to as Pret, founded in 1983. As of December 2022, Pret had 434 shops in the UK, including 273 in London, plus three Veggie Prets, which focus exclusively on vegetarian and vegan options. It also has shops in France, the US, Hong Kong and several other countries. Around 90% of all Pret shops worldwide donate their unsold fresh food to local charities, giving more than 16,000 sandwiches, wraps, salads and baguettes every day to homeless shelters and charities.
Two university friends, Sinclair Beecham and Julian Metcalfe, purchased the original Pret after bancrupcy.
In 1995, Metcalfe and Beecham set up The Pret Foundation, to help alleviate poverty in the UK. The Pret Foundation received donations from collection boxes in shops, funding a fleet of electric vans that deliver unsold food to homeless shelters at the end of each day, including FareShare, The Felix Project and City Harvest. The Pret Foundation has awarded over £7 million to over 100 charities across the UK, tackling homelessness, hunger and poverty.
The first shop outside London was opened on Broad Street, New York, in 2000, and by 2016, there were 74 Pret shops across the United States. In 2001, McDonald's bought a 33% non-controlling stake in the company, which they sold in 2008 to the private equity firm Bridgepoint Capital.
Pret a Manger Staff Union
In response to labour issues within the company, the Pret a Manger Staff Union was established in 2012 as an independent union with its principal demand being made around calls for a Living Wage. Andrej Stopa, the founder of the union, was later sacked from his Pret branch.
Failure to list ingredients on packaging
In late 2015, a 17-year-old girl collapsed and needed emergency medical care after a life-threatening reaction to sesame, which was present in a Pret product
