Travel Glossary

There might be certain situations that can affect flight safety. Flights can be delayed or canceled in such cases. Under the light of meteorological data, airline companies reserve their rights to cancel the flights in case of weather events such as dense fog that can affect the sight or storms. To provide a safe and pleasant flight, sometimes this might be necessary.

There are other weather events that can happen during the flight but do not pose a threat to flight safety such as turbulence. When a plane is caught up in an air pocket, turbulence can shake the plane but do not affect flight safety. Flight Centers work constantly to analyze the weather events caused by motions in the air and ensure a safe flight.
