MANCHESTER Airports Group (MAG) has confirmed a cybersecurity incident caused by an unauthorized third party, resulting in exposure of customer data from car park, lounge, and Fast Track bookings, as well as in-airport WiFi sign-ups across Manchester, London Stansted, and East Midlands airports. The organization acted quickly to mitigate the impact and is working with cybersecurity advisors and relevant authorities during the ongoing investigation.
As a precaution, MAG suspended access to its online Manage My Booking service, advising customers needing urgent changes to contact customer service by phone, with warnings of potentially longer wait times.
