The **Manchester Airports Group (MAG)** has confirmed a cybersecurity incident that led to the exfiltration of customer data from its systems. The breach, affecting users who signed up for Wi-Fi or made bookings for car parks, lounges, and Fast Track services, has prompted the temporary suspension of MAG's online “Manage My Booking” service.  ### Compromised Data and Scope **MAG** stated that the stolen data includes customers' email addresses, phone numbers, vehicle registration numbers, and postcodes. Crucially, the company assured that no payment details were accessed, and airport operations remain unaffected across its portfolio of **Manchester**, **London Stansted**, and **East Midlands** airports. While **MAG** has not publicly disclosed the exact number of affected individuals, local media reports, citing internal statements, suggest that data belonging to up to 8.9 million travelers may have been exposed. This figure, however, remains unconfirmed by **BleepingComputer**. ### Immediate Response and Recommendations Upon discovering the intrusion, **MAG** acted swiftly to contain the breach, restricting access to affected systems and engaging external cybersecurity experts. Law enforcement agencies have also been notified. Potentially affected customers are strongly advised to exercise heightened vigilance against suspicious communications. **MAG** emphasized that it will never request payment card information, banking details, or passwords via email or SMS. Any attempts to solicit such sensitive information should be rejected and reported to authorities. Customers are also encouraged to review and follow the **NCSC**’s (National Cyber Security Centre) post-breach recommendations to enhance their personal security postures. ### Ongoing Investigation At the time of writing, no specific ransomware or data extortion groups have publicly claimed responsibility for the attack. The investigation into the incident is ongoing as **MAG** works to understand the full extent of the breach and bolster its security defenses.
