Today’s aircraft are designed and built to withstand adverse weather situations. Plus, air traffic control and pilots are well trained to safely manage most meteorological events, while airports usually have equipment to handle snow, ice, and other conditions - especially in climates that see these events regularly.
Extraordinary circumstances are events that couldn’t be avoided or prevented. So, while snow in Denver or fog in San Francisco can be problematic, and even a safety concern in some cases - airports, airlines, and pilots expect them at certain airports, and are generally able to avoid or prevent any disruptions that could result.
Do this if bad weather disrupts your flight
If you have a delay or cancellation, always ask the airline for a written description of what caused the interruption. You might not know if you’ll qualify for compensation, but if you do, you’ll be prepared with some of the most valuable evidence for your claim.
Next, check real time apps like FlightAware to verify that severe weather is really causing problems. Be sure to take screenshots of weather apps that include the date and time so you have some proof that weather shouldn’t have been causing a problem.
Also, look around to see if other airlines are operating flights. If you see arrivals and departures functioning as usual, chances are the weather didn’t have a hand in your delay. Again, document everything you see and hear so you can include this information in your claim, if you choose to file one.
