What typhoon level will cancel flights?

The 6-level wind will cancel the flight.

under typhoon weather conditions, whether the flight will be cancelled depends on the typhoon level. Generally speaking, when the typhoon reaches level 6, the flight will be cancelled, but below level 6, it will be decided according to the actual situation. If the typhoon reaches level 6 or above, the airport will be closed. This is because a strong typhoon may cause the aircraft to be unbalanced, deviate from the route, and may cause damage or casualties to the aircraft. The continued flight of the aircraft in typhoon weather will be greatly affected, which may cause severe bumps, thus endangering flight safety.

Typhoons are sometimes accompanied by hail, and fast-flying planes are vulnerable to hail. Once airlines cancel their flights, they will inform passengers by phone or SMS in advance, and help them to refund or change their tickets for free. When encountering a strong typhoon, the aircraft is prone to imbalance, which may deviate from the route, cause damage to the aircraft or casualties. During the flight, the typhoon will also bring bumps, lightning strikes and hail, which will have a direct impact on flight safety.

Introduction of Typhoon

Typhoon is a kind of tropical cyclone, which is a low-pressure vortex that occurs on tropical or subtropical ocean surface and is a powerful and profound tropical weather system. China classifies tropical cyclones in the northwest Pacific into six grades according to the maximum average wind force near the center of the ground floor, and those whose wind force near the center reaches 12 or above are collectively called typhoons.

Typhoons often bring violent winds, rainstorms and storm surges, which not only bring disasters to human beings, but also bring benefits to human beings. Typhoons have brought abundant fresh water resources to human beings, which is of great significance for improving the supply of fresh water and the ecological environment. In addition, typhoons have kept the cold and hot in all parts of the world relatively balanced, and the climate in equatorial regions is hot. If typhoons do not disperse these heat, the tropics will be hotter, the frigid zone will be colder, and the temperate zone will disappear from the earth.
