Manchester Airport has introduced its first Jewish chaplain. In a statement the airport said the move comes following the death of an 85-year-old man from Crumpsall on a flight from Tel Aviv in June. Rabbi Jonathan Roitenbarg, 33, from Prestwich, will now offer on-call assistance to Jewish passengers and will visit twice a week to coincide with two Tel Aviv flights.
